Two households, both alike in dignity,

In fair Verona, where we lay our scene,

From ancient grudge break to new mutiny,

Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.

From forth the fatal loins of these two foes

A pair of star-cross'd lovers take their life;

Whose misadventur'd piteous overthrows

Do with their death bury their parents' strife.

The fearful passage of their death-mark'd love,

And the continuance of their parents' rage,

Which, but their children's end, nought could remove,

Is now the two hours' traffick of our stage;

The which if you with patient ears attend,

What here shall miss' our toil shall strive to mend (I. i. 2-15).

Answer:

I do not see the question, but I can elaborate for you on the choice above. Both families have equally high status. These 2 both come from what is described as a "dignified" family. These 2 families are so angry with each other and are known to be in a feud. Verona is a beautiful city, but there is so much hatred between the 2 families. These 2 precious children of theirs fall in love and then they end of taking their own lives. Does this put an end to the feud? The parents are still angry, but probably angry at themselves. They cannot bring their children back.
