    And bid the cheek be ready with a blush
    Modest as morning when she coldly eyes

Lay by all nicety and prolixious blushes,
That banish what read more

Fit thy consent to my sharp appetite,
Lay by all nicety and prolixious blushes,

Or else he must not only die the death,
But thy unkindess shall his death draw out
To ling'ring sufferance.
