    Madam, you have bereft me of all words.
    Only my blood speaks to you in my veins,
    And there is such confusion in my powers
    As, after some oration fairly spoke
    By a beloved prince, there doth appear
    Among the buzzing pleased multitude,
    Where every something being blent together
    Turns to a wild of nothing, save of joy
    Expressed and not expressed.
