017.B46.0HE Elegie [grape cluster]
017.B46.001 Marry, and Loue thy Flauia, for she
017.B46.002 Hath all things, where by other beauteous bee.
017.B46.003 What thoughe, hir eyes are Small, hir mouth is great.
017.B46.004 Thoughe theirs be Iuory, yet hir teeth are Ieat.
017.B46.005 Though they be dimme yet she is light enoughe
017.B46.006 And thouge hir harch haire fall, hir Skin is toughe.
017.B46.007 What thoughe hir Cheekes be yellowe? hir haire's red
017.B46.008 And giue hir thine she hath a Maidenhead.
017.B46.009 These things are Beauties Elements; where these
017.B46.010 Meete in one, that one must as perfect please.
017.B46.011 If read and white, and each good quallitie
017.B46.012 Be in thy Wenche, ne're aske where it doth lie
017.B46.013 In buyinge things perfum'd, wee aske, if there
017.B46.014 Be Muske or Amber in it but not where.
017.B46.015 Though all the Parts be not in the vsuall Place
017.B46.016 Yet she hath an Anagram of a good face.
017.B46.017 If we might put the letters but one way
017.B46.018 In the leane dearth of wordes what could we Say
017.B46.019 When by a Gamuth, Some Musitians make
017.B46.020 A perfect Songe; others will vndertake.
017.B46.021 By the Same Gamuth, changd, to equall it
017.B46.022 Thinges Simply good, can neuer be vnfitt
017.B46.023 She's faire as any, if all be like hir
017.B46.024 And if none be, then she is Singuler.
017.B46.025 All Loue is wonder, if we iustly doe
017.B46.026 Account hir wonderfull, why not louelie too.
017.B46.027 Loue built on Beauty, Sone, as Beauty Dyes
017.B46.028 Choose this face, chang'd by noe deformities
017.B46.029 Weomen are all like Angells, the fairer bee
017.B46.030 Like those which fell to worste, but such as she [f.53v
017.B46.031 Like to good Angells, whome naught can %Ybe faire%Z impaire
017.B46.032 Tis lesse griefe to be foule, then t'haue bin faire
017.B46.033 For one nights Reuells Silke, and Golde we chuse
017.B46.034 But in longe Iourneys, clothe, and Leather vse.
017.B46.035 Beautie is barren ofte; Best husbands Say
017.B46.036 There is best Land, where there is foulest way
017.B46.037 O what a Soueraigne Plaister will she bee
017.B46.038 If thy past Sins haue taught thee Iealousie
017.B46.039 Here neede no Spies nor Eunuches, her com%Mitt
017.B46.040 Safe to thy foes; yea to a Marmosett.
017.B46.041 When Belgia's Cityes, the foule Country drownes
017.B46.042 The Durty foulenes, guards and armes the Townes
017.B46.043 So doth hir face guarde hir, and So for thee.
017.B46.044 Who for hir Busines forc't must absent bee.
017.B46.045 She whose face like Cloudes, makes the Day Seme Night
017.B46.046 Who mightier then the Sea, makes Moores Seeme white
017.B46.047 Whoe though Seauen yeares, she in the stewes had laide
017.B46.048 A Nunrie durst receiue, and thincke a Maide
017.B46.049 And though in Childbirth Labour she did lie
017.B46.050 Mydwiues would Sweare, t'were but a Tympanie
017.B46.051 Whom if she accuse hir Selfe, I credit lesse
017.B46.052 Then Witches, which impossibles confesse
017.B46.053 Whom Dildoes, Bedstaues, and a veluet Glasse
017.B46.054 Would be as loath to touch, as Josephe was.
017.B46.055 One like none & lik't of none, fittest t'were
017.B46.056 For thinges in fashion eyery one will weare.|.
