   Is Rosaline Romeo's love?

   • Benvolio is then in possession of the fact that Rosaline is Romeo's love. It seems odd that the fact was not more formally introduced in the first scene.

   Judged by the standards of any expression of love which Shakespeare gives us up to and including A Midsummer Night's Dream, Romeo's love for Rosaline is neither artificial nor insincere.
