Read the following line from Romeo's monologue in Act II, Scene 2 of Romeo and Juliet, where Shakespeare employs personification:
Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon,
Who is already sick and pale with grief,
That thou her maid art far more fair than she:
Be not her maid, since she is envious...

In this quote, Romeo refers to Juliet as the sun and Rosaline as the moon. What does Romeo intend to say in these lines? (1 point)Romeo says he is now in love with Juliet instead of Rosaline.
Romeo says that Rosaline is more beautiful than Juliet.
Romeo says that Juliet is envious of Rosaline.
Romeo says he has love for Juliet and Rosaline.

The answer is the first one, Romeo says he is now in love with Juliet instead of Rosaline. Juliet is the sun, and Romeo, who used to love Rosaline (represented by the sick and pale moon), now completely loves Juliet.

Answer:

Romeo says he is now in love with Juliet instead of Rosaline.

Explanation:

Juliet is the sun because she is ready for love and to loose her virginity. Rosaline is the moom because she did not dare love Romeo ; besides , she was too puritan; she wanted to remain chaste. Then, the moon is jealous of the sun's heat. Juliet is not interested in chastity , so she shines and beams

like the sun. Rosaline is cold like the moon. These are the reasons why Romeo has just fallen in love with Juliet and has realised he has stopped loving Rosaline .
