Q

Come, gentle night. Come, loving, black-browned night.
Give me my Romeo, and when he shall die,
Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night
And pay no worship to the garish sun.
~JULIET

A

When Romeo dies, cut his face into little stars so that everyone can be in love with night as I am, and not worship the sun anymore.
