Nobody says this. The quotation is "What man art thou, thus bescreened in night, so stumblest upon my counsel." The Wikianswers rule about using the word "my" in questions does not apply to quotations like "We the people" or "stumblest upon my counsel."

∙ 13y agoJuliet says this. She has heard a man's voice coming out of the dark of her garden and she doesn't know who it is. She asks who he is. She can't see him because he is hidden (bescreened) by the dark. He has stumbled upon her "counsel", that is her thoughts expressed out loud.

When Juliet discovers Romeo at her balconey what does she fear?
Nothing. Isn't that amazing? She's looking out over her back yard and a voice calls out to her from the darkness and she says "What man art thou that thus bescreen'd in night so stumblest on my counsel?" In other words she is challenging him to show himself and tell who he is. He line shows no sign of fear; if she were afraid she'd run back into the house. But she doesn't do that.
What does bescreen'd in night mean?
From Romeo and Juliet, Act II Scene 2, the balcony scene. Juliet cannot see Romeo; she says he is "bescreen'd in night." "Bescreen'd" is the same word as "bescreened"; the apostrophe tells us that the word is to be pronounced in two syllables not in three, "be-screend" not "be-screen-ned". You know what it means to screen something, don't you? You put something in front of it so it can't be seen. You do the screening and it gets screened. Or you can use the prefix "be" which means the same thing. If you deck something with flowers, the thing covered in flowers is "bedecked". So here is Romeo, who is hidden behind, or screened by, the night or in other words, he is bescreened by the night.
