#TwilightForever: New Moon's Original Epigraph

Come, gentle night; come, loving, black-browed night;
Give me my Romeo; and, when I 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...

Romeo and Juliet Act III scene ii

According to Stephenie Meyer's website,  the passage above was the original epigraph for New Moon, but she changed it to one with far darker foreshadowing. Even so, the original was very romantic and dark and very fitting for Edward and Bella's love.
