Why does Romeo compare Juliet to the sun?

"But soft! What light from yonder window breaks? It is the East, and Juliet is the sun. Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon, who is already sick and pale with grief that thou her maid art far more fair than she." When Romeo says, "Arise, fair sun" right after saying "Juliet is the sun" you can tell that he is not talking about Juliet so much as talking to her, even though she cannot hear. Thus the "thou" in "thou her maid art far more fair than she." is Juliet; it is Juliet who is far more fair than "she", that is to say, the moon. So the reason that the moon is envious, sick and pale with grief is that Juliet is prettier than the moon. Makes sense, right?

He is responding to Friar Lawerence who has just told him how happy he should be that he is only banished and not killed. He says that this is mercy and Romeo opposes to this by saying that banishment is not mercy but torterous because he believes the best place to be is in Verona with Juliet.
