Read the excerpt from Act I, scene ii of Romeo and Juliet. Capulet: But saying o’er what I have said before: My child is yet a stranger in the world, She hath not seen the change of fourteen years; Let two more summers wither in their pride Ere we may think her ripe to be a bride. Which is the best paraphrase of Capulet’s lines?
Juliet will marry you after she has had her fourteenth birthday.
Juliet is old enough to be a wife, and she will be married in the summer.
Juliet is a stranger to you, so you should get to know each other first.
Juliet is too young and not ready to be married for another two years.
