WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE: A Midsummer Night's Dream

Read the extract below and answer the question: 
Lysander riddles very prettily;
Now much beshrew my manners and my pride, If Hermia meant to say Lysander lied.
But, gentle friend, for love and courtesy Lie further off, in human modesty;
Such separation as may well be said
Becomes a virtuous bachelor and a maid;
So far be distant, and good night, sweet friend: Thy love ne'er alter, till thy sweet life end!
