And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.
_Midsummer Night's Dream, Act i. Sc. 1_. SHAKESPEARE.
None ever loved but at first sight they loved.
_Blind Beggar of Alexandria_. G. CHAPMAN.

And, blindly fond, oft slight superior merit.

But love is blind, and lovers cannot see
The pretty follies that themselves commit.
_Merchant of Venice, Act ii. Sc. 6_. SHAKESPEARE.
