Romeo and Juliet Quote

Juliet: Must you be gone? It's not really the dawn. You heard the nightingale and not a lark, I promise. She sings each night sitting in yonder tree. Believe me, love, it was the nightingale.
Romeo: It was the lark, the herald of the morn. No nightingale. Look, love, what envious streaks do lace the severing clouds in yonder east. Night's candles are burnt out and jocund day stands tiptoe on the misty mountain tops. I must be gone and live, or stay and die.
Juliet: I do not think the light is daylight yet.
Romeo: I am content, if you would have it so. I have more to stay, than will to go. Come, death, and welcome! Juliet wills it so. How am I with you and say it is not day.
Juliet: It is, it is! Go, now. Be gone, away! It is the lark that sings so out of tune, of horrid discords and unpleasant sharps. O, hurry now! More light and light it grows.
Romeo: More light and light; more dark and dark our woes!
