On a Proud Lady.
Still to be Neat, still to be Drest
As you were going to a Feast:
Still to be powder'd still perfum'd!
Lady, it is to be presum'd,
Though Arts hid Causes are not found,
All is not sweet, All is not sound.

All is not sweet, All is not sound.
Give me a Look, give me a Face
That makes Simplicity a Grace;
Robes Loosly flowing, Hair as Free;
Such sweet neglects more taketh me
Then all th'Adult'ries of Art;
They strike my Eyes, but not my Heart.
