What does the quote 'spread thy close curtain love performing night that runaways eyes may wink' mean in the play Romeo and Juliet?

The whole quotation, which is from Juliet's soliloquy in Act III Scene 2 which begins with the words "Gallop apace, you fiery-footed steeds", is as follows: Spread thy close curtain, love-performing night, That runaway's eyes may wink and Romeo Leap to these arms, untalk'd of and unseen. Bear in mind that Juliet was able to sneak out of her father's house early that afternoon and get married to Romeo but had to return home and wait for Romeo to sneak into her bedroom and have sex with her. This speech is about that waiting, and her anticipation of the night and the pleasure it is going to bring her. Look at the first line. What does a curtain do? It covers things up. When the edges of a curtain are pulled close together it is a "close curtain" and is even better at covering things up. Who has this curtain? "Love-performing night" Why "love-performing"? Because people make love to each other at night. Why does night have a curtain? Because it is dark, and hard to see, like when your eyes are closed (winking meant both eyes closed then). So in the line "Spread thy close curtain, love-performing night, that runaway's eyes may wink" Juliet is asking the night (apostrophe is the word for talking to things that cannot talk back) to come and make things dark so people can't see. Why does she want nobody to see? So Romeo can leap into her arms, that is have sex with her, "untalked of and unseen". Their marriage is a secret and so must their wedding night be. The whole speech is a masterpiece of erotic anticipation.
