Under his Mistress's Picture.

I

Rare Artesan, who ere thou art
That drew this lively counterfeit,
The work doth shew thou art expert,
Yet (give leave) 'ts not compleat,
The reason is when she is near,
Thy workmanship doth not appear.

And the Original but seen,
They both together would deny,
And both refuse to take in hand
A work that doth their Art command:
