Vane quid affectas faciem mihi ponere pictorB
Ignotamque oculis solicitare manuC
Aeris et venti sum filia mater inanisA
Indicii vocemque sine mente geroB
Auribus in vestris habito penetrabilis echoB
Si mihi vis similem pingere pinge sonosA

IN ENGLISHD
-
Vain painter why dost strive my face to drawB
With busy hands a goddesse eyes nere sawB
Daughter of air and wind I do rejoyceB
In empty shouts without a mind a voiceB
Within your ears shrill echo I reboundE
And if you'l paint me like then paint a soundE
