"Nurse: A joyless, dismal, black, and sorrowful issue. Here is the babe, as loathsome as a toad Amongst the fair-faced breeders of our clime. The empress sends it thee, thy stamp, thy seal, And bids thee christen it with thy dagger’s point. Aaron: Zounds, ye whore, is black so base a hue? Sweet blowse, you are a beauteous blossom sure."
