Yes, B is the correct answer. In the opening scene of William Shakespeare's play "Romeo and Juliet," Prince Escalus is referring to Lord Capulet and Lord Montague when he says "rebellious subjects, enemies to peace, profaners of this neighbor-stained steel."
To determine the correct answer, you can analyze the statement made by Prince Escalus in the scene. In this line, Prince Escalus is addressing the conflict between two families in Verona, the Capulets and the Montagues. He accuses them of being rebellious, enemies of peace, and disrespecting their swords stained with the blood of their neighbors. This accusation is indicative of the ongoing feud between the two families. Therefore, the correct answer is B: Lord Capulet and Lord Montague.
