"The most beautiful, the purest light ever captured
from the sun flees because I enter?
Am I the dark of night?
May your beauty forgive me if I tarry here,
bold and discourteous, to beseech a favor from you
that you will not grant."
- Calderón, THE PHANTOM LADY; ACT II (1629)
Am I the dark of night?
