    This is one of the most famous, all time favorite tragedy of William Shakespeare. This is not just a story of two youngsters falling in love but about two rival families from which, love embarks their way finally leading to a tragic end.

    Explanation:

    The Lord mentioned in the question is the father of the female protagonist in this play, written by Shakespeare. As scene 2 begins, it gives a introduction to the Lord, whose rival is the father of the male protagonist.

    This man is portrayed to be filled with power and influence all over his community. His idea of violence has no difference between women and men. He is rude, arrogant and rash in making decisions about his daughter and also in his choice of war/fights against the rival community. He is shown as man who wants his family to be secure, abide by certain rules and discipline themselves at home according to him. His attitude towards his wife shows his old way of thinking.

    In contrast, the male protagonist in this play is young, playful, ambitious and happy. He is always surrounded by his friends, with whom he roams about places. His idea of love, marriage are naive and decisions are completely emotionally driven. He does not try to think deep or look into consequences rather jumps to conclusions with a single thought in his mind. He does not think of his community, parents and his own life when he thinks of marrying a girl from the rival community.
