Commonplace
Before the feast Romeo swears that the sun “Ne’er saw her match since first the world begun,” meaning Rosaline. At the feast, seeing a stranger, he asks, “Did my heart love till now?” Set the two speeches beside each other. Has he found something new, or is he saying the same thing again?
