Post-it note at least three of your favourite lines to support your opinions.
How does the Friar attempt to console Romeo? 

Scene 4: The Marriage to Paris . . . . What? Oh no. Spoiler Alert. Read and enjoy.

In this scene decide why Lord Capulet is consenting to this marriage now since in Act 1 he was adamant that Juliet was too young to marry. Why does he change his mind?
