Epig. 15. To Claudius.
And why (good Claudius) should I hide,That wherein gods do take a pride,
She, who is of the Nymphs the Queen,
The loveliest that hath yet been seen,
She, with her most enflaming eyes
Hath fir'd my Heart, those curious tyes
Of her entortell'd tresses bind,
With golden fetters my whole mind:
Her gracefull smiles, her red and white,
Which Art can never pencill right,
That wisdome in her tender yeares,
Scarce to be found amongst gray haires,
The constant tenour of her life
Which may beseem the gravest wife,
Her modest, and not gay, Attyre,
Whereby she honour doth acquire,
The pleasing Majestie of her face,
And her deportment with such grace,
These have Captive took my mind,
Oh! that my Martiallesse were kind,
119
And would not change for thousand Lives.
