    Dear, why should you command me to my rest,
    When now the night doth summon all to sleep?
    Methinks this time becometh lovers best;
    Night was ordained together friends to keep.

    Which though the day disjoin by several flight,
    The quiet evening yet together brings,
    And each returns unto his love at night.
