O, she doth teach
the torches to burn bright!
It seems she hangs
upon the cheer of night
As a rich jewel in an Ethiop's ear;
Beauty too rich for use,
For earth too dear!
So shows a snowy dove
trooping with crows,
As yonder lady o'er her fellows shows.
The measure done,
I'll watch her place of stand,
And, touching hers,
make blessed my rude hand.
Did my heart love till now?
Forswear it, sight!
For I ne'er saw
true beauty till this night.
WIlliam Shakespeare
