yonder window breaks? (II.ii.2)

Act I Scene v

O, she doth teach the torches to burn bright!

It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night
Like a rich jewel in an Ethiope's ear;

So shows a snowy dove trooping with crows,
As yonder lady o'er her fellows shows.

Having some business, do entreat her eyes

The brightness of her cheek would shame those stars,
As daylight doth a lamp; her eyes in heaven
Would through the airy region stream so bright
That birds would sing and think it were not night.

O, that I were a glove upon that hand,
That I might touch that cheek!

O, speak again, bright angel!

What's in a name? That which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet;

With love's light wings did I o'er-perch these walls;

It is too rash, too unadvised, too sudden;
Too like the lightning, which doth cease to be
Ere one can say "It lightens."

This bud of love, by summer's ripening breath,
May prove a beauteous flower when next we meet.

My bounty is as boundless as the sea,
My love as deep; the more I give to thee,
The more I have, for both are infinite.

O blessed, blessed night! I am afeard.
Being in night, all this is but a dream,
Too flattering-sweet to be substantial.

Love goes toward love, as schoolboys from their books,
But love from love, toward school with heavy looks.
