What is Capulet saying?

Content thee, gentle coz, let him alone:

He bears him like a portly gentleman;

And, to say truth, Verona brags of him

To be a virtuous and well-govern'd youth.

I would not for the wealth of all this town

Here in my house do him disparagement;

Therefore be patient, take no note of him:

It is my will; the which if thou respect,

Show a fair presence and put off these frowns,

An ill-beseeming semblance for a feast.

A. He is asking Romeo not to kill Tybalt.

B. He is trying to convince Juliet that Paris is worth marrying.

C. He is trying to convince Lady Capulet that Paris is worth marrying.

D. He is telling Tybalt to leave Romeo alone, as long as Romeo behaves himself.
