By their own beauties; or, if love be blind,

It best agrees with night.—Come, [civil] Night,

Thou sober-suited matron, all in black,

And [learn] me how to lose a winning match,

Play'd for a pair of stainless maidenhoods.

[Hood my unmann'd blood], bating in my cheeks,

With thy black mantle, till [strange] love grown bold

Think true love acted simple modesty.

[Come, Night], come, Romeo, come, thou day in night,

[For thou] wilt lie upon the wings of Night
