Why had lord Capulet lost hope?

Perhaps you are thinking of this line: The earth hath swallow'd all my hopes but she, She is the hopeful lady of my earth: What he means is that Juliet is his only child and heir; his "hopes" are his hopes of having decendants to follow him. Capulet has not lost hope in any general sense.

How old was Juliet according to her father?

Capulet doesn't have a sister that we are told about. We know that Juliet doesn't have one. We do know that Capulet has a cousin who is about as old as he is, and an uncle who must be old indeed, and that Rosaline is his neice, which means she must be daughter to a brother or sister, unless she, like Tybalt, is related to Lady Capulet's family.


Why is Paris in Juliets room?

He doesn't refer to Juliet as Venus at all. What he does say is: "Immoderately she weeps for Tybalt's death, And therefore have I little talk'd of love; For Venus smiles not in a house of tears." He means Venus would not smile ON HIM in a house of tears; in other words, the goddess of love would not favor his pursuit of Juliet right at the moment. He means that he knew he could not properly court Juliet, and win her heart as her father had instructed him to do, because she was too grief-stricken (supposedly over Tybalt's death), and wouldn't have appreciated hearing this guy she barely knew talking about love and marriage.


What does 'And summer's lease hath all too short a date' mean?

Summer is far too short. The beauty of summer is too short and will not last long, until the next year it comes. But in this poem, it shows us the imperfectness of summer, but later in the 3ed quatrain, tells that "thee" will not behold those faults..
