"———Come, feeling night,
"Skarf up the tender eye of pitiful day;
"And with thy bloody and invisible hand
"Cancel, and tear to pieces, that great bond.
"Which keeps me pale—Light thickens; and the crow
"Makes wing to the rooky wood:
"Good things by day begin to droop and drouse;
"While night's black agents to their preys do rouse.
"Shakespeare."
