always0nny: Tell her that’s young,
And shuns to have her graces spied,
That hadst thou sprung
In deserts, where no men abide,
Thou must have uncommended died.

May read in thee;
How small a part of time they share
That are so wondrous sweet and fair!

stevebwriter: I can't see why it chose those 2 in particular. Scrabble approves "ungot"; there's even a nice poetic line: "his loins yet full of ungot princes" (Edmund Waller, 1623).
I also missed "gong".
