'Now of this dark night I perceive the reason:
Cynthia for shame obscures her silver shine,
Till forging Nature be condemn'd of treason,
For stealing moulds from heaven that were divine;
Wherein she framed thee in high heaven's despite,
To shame the sun by day and her by night.
“夜黑有因我知道：
銀光不照月神羞，
除非物神逆天造，
欺天盜模罪可究；
月神作汝高天誡，
物神有意臊日月”
