ReplyDeleteBenvolio - Even though the two families are enemies, he doesn't want them to start fighting in the streets, probably because he knew that it would upset the Prince or the other citizens of the town.
Prince Escalus - It's like he said, they've disturbed the streets of Verona many times before. I'm sure that he knows that their fighting is ridiculous, but knows he cannot convince them to stop, even if he is the prince. What he can do was keep them from fighting, so that, like what happened later in the story, nobody gets hurt or killed.
