To G SB

-
She that I love is neither brown nor fairC
And in a word her worth to sayD
There is no maid that with her mayD
CompareC
-
Yet of her charms the count is clear I weenA
There are five hundred things we seeE
And then five hundred too there beE
Not seenA
-
Her wit her wisdom are direct from HeavenA
But the sweet Graces from their storeF
A thousand finer touches moreF
Have givenA
-
Her cheek's warm dye what painter's brush could noteG
Beside her Flora would be wanA
And white as whiteness of the swanA
Her throatG
-
Her supple waist her arm from Venus cameH
Hebe her nose and lip confessB
And looking in her eyes you guessB
Her nameH
