[How shall I then discribe my loue, when all mens skilfull arte is]
How shall I then discribe my loue, when all mens skilfull arte is
Far inferior to her worth, to prayse thu'n worthiest parte,
Shee's chaste in looks mild in her speech in actions all discreet
Of nature louing pleasing most in vertue all compleate.
Far inferior to her worth, to prayse thu'n worthiest parte,
Shee's chaste in looks mild in her speech in actions all discreet
Of nature louing pleasing most in vertue all compleate.
And for her voyce a Philome, her lip may all lips skorne,
No sunne more cleare then is her eye, in brightest Summer morne
A mind wherein all vertues rest, and takes delight to be
And where all vertues graft themselues in that most fruitfull tree.
No sunne more cleare then is her eye, in brightest Summer morne
A mind wherein all vertues rest, and takes delight to be
And where all vertues graft themselues in that most fruitfull tree.
A tree that India doth not yeeld, nor euer yet was seene,
Where buds of vertue alwaies springes, and all the yeere growes greene,
That countries blest wherein she growes, and happie is that rocke,
From whence she springes, but happiest he that grafts in such a stocke.
Where buds of vertue alwaies springes, and all the yeere growes greene,
That countries blest wherein she growes, and happie is that rocke,
From whence she springes, but happiest he that grafts in such a stocke.
