This question appears to be referencing two different prologues, but without specifying which plays they belong to. Im assuming that the question is referring to the prologues of Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" and Brooke's poem "The Tragical History of Romeus and Juliet," this could be the possible answer:

C. Shakespeare's Prologue is more specific than Brooke's.

Shakespeare's Prologue provides more specific details about the setting, the feud between the two families, and the fate of the lovers, whereas Brooke's prologue is more general and focuses mainly on the theme of tragedy.
