Answer: C i think

Explanation: This is the first meeting between Romeo and Juliet at the Capulet ball. Shakespeare goes to pains to write the encounter as a sonnet. As you know, the sonnet is traditionally associated with love, so it's no surprise that Shakespeare chose this form to detail the first exchange of words between our young lovers
