How does Capulet treat the nurse in this opening scene compared to act 3?
In the opening scene of Romeo and Juliet, Capulet initially treats the Nurse kindly and respectfully, addressing her as "good" and "worthy." However, in Act 3, his attitude toward her changes dramatically. He becomes verbally abusive and dismissive, calling her a "baggage," "fool," and "trull." This shift in Capulet's behavior reflects his growing frustration and anger with the situation, as well as his tendency to lash out at those he perceives as being beneath him.
