Se ben concettoA

-
When that which is divine in us doth tryB
To shape a face both brain and hand uniteA
To give from a mere model frail and slightA
Life to the stone by Art's free energyC
Thus too before the painter dares to plyB
Paint brush or canvas he is wont to writeA
Sketches on scraps of paper and inviteA
Wise minds to judge his figured historyC
So born a model rude and mean to beC
Of my poor self I gain a nobler birthD
Lady from you you fountain of all worthD
Each overplus and each deficiencyC
You will make good What penance then is dueA
For my fierce heat chastened and taught by youA

Michelangelo Di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni
