Sups the fair Rosaline, whom thou so lov’st,
With all the admired beauties of Verona:
Go thither; and, with unattainted eye
Compare her face with some that I shall show,
And I will make thee think thy swan a crow.
Which is the best paraphrase of Benvolio’s lines?

If you go to the party you will see that Rosaline is, in fact, the most beautiful girl in Verona.
Compare Rosaline with other girls from Verona and then decide whether she is worthy of your love.
There are many girls in Verona who are just as beautiful and desirable as Rosaline.
Once you see other beautiful girls at the party, you will see that Rosaline is not so special.

It was a bitter cold saturday morning ,the young track star dressed for his daily five mile run
