Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
1) Question #1 The prince says:
If ever you disturb our streets again,
Your lives shall pay the forfeit of the peace!.

"If you ever have a public fight again, then you will be executed!.

You have to read the lines carefully and you'll figure out what's happening!. If you are having trouble with the old words, use the "No Fear Shakespeare" web site!. All of the verse is rephrased using very simple modern English!. For instance Benvolio's speech is paraphrased as follows:

2) Question #2 Benvolio says:
So early walking did I see your son:
Towards him I made, but he was ware of me
And stole into the covert of the wood:

BENVOLIO
Madam, I had a lot on my mind an hour before dawn this morning, so I went for a walk!. Underneath the Sycamore grove that grows on the west side of the city, I saw your son taking an early-morning walk!. I headed toward him, but he saw me coming and hid in the woods!. I thought he must be feeling the same way I was—wanting to be alone and tired of his own company!. I figured he was avoiding me, and I was perfectly happy to leave him alone and keep to myself!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
