[Some can flatter, some can faine]
[1]
Some can flatter, some can faine,Simple trueth shall pleade for mee
Let not beautie trueth disdaine,
Trueth is euen as faire as shee.
2
But since Paires must equall proue,Let my strength her youth oppose,
Loue her beautie, faith her loue,
On eu'n termes so may we close.
3
Corke or Leade, in equall waight,Both one iust proportion yeeld,
So may breadth be pays'd with height,
Steepest mount with plainest field.
4
Vertues haue not all one kind,Yet all vertues merits bee:
Diuers vertues are combind,
Diff'ring so Deserts agree.
5
Let then loue and beautie meete,Making one diuine concent,
Constant as the sounds, and sweete,
That enchant the firmament.
