'Tis yet too soon.
FAUST
Some present for my love procure! [Exit.]
MEPHISTOPHELES
Presents so soon! 'tis well! success is sure!
Full many a goodly place I know,
And treasures buried long ago;
I must a bit o'erlook them now. [Exit.]

And doubtless was of high degree:
That written on his brow was seen—
Nor else would he so bold have been.
