Read the following excerpt from Benvolio's speech in Act 1 of Romeo and Juliet. "Here were the servants of your adversary And yours, close fighting ere I did approach. I drew to part them. In the instant came The fiery Tybalt, with his sword prepared;" What can you conclude is the meaning of the word adversary?
