Romeo describes Rosalind as the moon in Act 2, Scene 2 of William Shakespeare's play "Romeo and Juliet." In this famous balcony scene, Romeo compares Rosalind's beauty to the moon, saying "It is the east, and Rosalind is the sun." This metaphor emphasizes Rosalind's radiant beauty and highlights Romeo's infatuation with her. The moon symbolizes Rosalind's purity and ethereal presence in Romeo's eyes.
