flow, heauen
shew his face:
15651461Young blood doth not obay an olde decree.
15661462We can not cro

15671463Therefore of all handes mu

15681464King. What, did the
se rent lines

some loue of thine?
15701465Ber. Did they quoth you? Who
sees the heauenly
Rosaline,
15711466That (like a rude and
sauadge man of
Inde.)
15721467At the

15731468Bowes not his va

strooken blind.
15741469Ki

15751470What peromptorie Eagle-
sighted eye
15761471Dares looke vpon the heauen of her brow,
15771472That is not blinded by her maie
stie?
15781473King. What zeale, what furie, hath in
spirde thee now?
15791474My Loue (her Mi
stres) is a gracious Moone,
15801475Shee (an attending Starre)
scarce
seene a light.
15811476Ber. My eyes are then no eyes, nor I
Berowne.
15821477O, but for my Loue, day would turne to night,
15831478Of all complexions the culd
soueraigntie,
15841479Do meete as at a faire in her faire cheeke,
15851480Where
seuerall worthies make one dignitie,
15861481Where nothing wantes, that want it
selfe doth
seeke.
15871482Lend me the

15881483Fie paynted Rethoricke, O

15891484To thinges of

15911486A witherd Hermight
fiue

15921487Might
shake o

15931488Beautie doth varni
sh Age, as if new borne,
15941489And giues the Crutch the Cradles infancie.
15951490O tis the Sunne that maketh all thinges
shine.
15961491King. By heauen, thy Loue is blacke as Ebonie.
15971492Berow. Is Ebonie like her

such wood were felicitie.
15991494O who can giue an oth? Where is a booke
? 16001495That I may
sweare Beautie doth beautie lacke,
16011496If that
she learne not of her eye to looke:
16021497No face is fayre that is not full
so blacke.
