Love's Sole's Conversation
Were we both blind, though that were much,
Wee could both live and love by touch;
If onely Deafe, and that our beinge,
Wee could discourse our love by Seeinge;
If onely Dum, Each lovinge Brest
Our love by musick so Exprest;
Wantinge our taste, not barr'd love's tellinge,
Discourse by flowers' Various Smellinge;
Wantinge our Smellinge, love not wasted,
Our minds Exprest when lipps were tasted;
Though wanted touch, love's cheefest Joy,
Platonick love thinkes that a Toye;
If sensles were our Senses' holes,
Wee could converse our Purer Soles.
