[Cupid, in captivity, is set to his task by four nymphs.]
Telusa. Come, sirrah! to your task! First you must undo all these lovers' knots, because you tied them.
Cupid. If they be true love knots 'tis unpossible to unknit them; if false, I never tied them.
Eurota. Make no excuse, but to it.
Cupid. Love knots are tied with eyes, and cannot be undone with hands; made fast with thoughts, and cannot be unloosed with fingers. Had Diana no task to set Cupid to but things impossible? I will to it.
Ramia. Why, how now? you tie the knots faster.
Cupid. I cannot choose; it goeth against my mind to make them loose.
Eurota. Let me see;—now 'tis unpossible to be undone.
Cupid. It is the true love knot of a woman's heart, therefore cannot be undone.
