What does ere mean in Elizabethan?

Shakespeare uses this word twenty times in the play. You can substitute the word "before" if you like. For example:Let two more summers wither in their pride,Ere we may think her ripe to be a bride.meansLet two more summers wither in their pride,Before we may think her ripe to be a bride.Of course that makes the rhythm of the line wrong. Shakespeare did not use the word "before" to refer to time, only to space. It is the opposite of "behind". So when Macbeth says, "Is this a dagger which I see before me?", he means that the dagger is in front of him spatially. When talking about a previous time, Shakespeare used the word "ere".


What Capulet first answer?

When Paris first asks for Juliet's hand, Capulet says something like, "My daughter is still very young. She's not even fourteen years old. Let's wait two more summers before we start thinking she's ready to get married." To be exact, he says "My child is yet a stranger in the world. She hath not seen the change of fourteen years; let two more summers wither in their pride ere we may think her ripe to be a bride."


How do the plans lord Capulet makes with Paris directly contradict the statements he makes during their first discussion in I.ii?

Act I: "Let two more summers wither in their pride ere we may think her ripe to be a bride."Act III: "A Thursday, let it be, she will be married to this noble earl."Act I: "My will to her consent is but a part."Act III: "I think she will be ruled in all respects by me; nay more, I doubt it not."


What is the difference between a blue wither skull and a black wither skull?

The black wither skull is the normal wither skull, however the blue wither skull is much more devastating to the terrain around it. The black wither is much faster, meanwhile the blue wither skull is slower. Building a shelter against a blue wither skull will not work, as it can break through obsidian. The shots fired from a blue wither go on forever until it hits something, so the blue wither could unintentionally hit something else. Read more on the wiki in the related links below.

What are your thoughts about Lord Capulet's behavior toward Juliet?

It's a little inconsistent, isn't it? People talk about how rapidly Romeo and Juliet's relationship develops, but look at Capulet: On Sunday, he says, "Let two more summers wither in their pride ere we can think her ripe to be a bride." and "my will to her consent is but a part." but on Tuesday he says "An you be mine, I'll give you to my friend; an you be not, hang, beg, starve, die in the streets". He totally changes his attitude.
