Here
on this Figure Cast a Glance.
But
so as if it were by Chance,
Your
eyes not fixt, they must not Stay,
Since
this like Shadowes to the Day
It
only represent's; for Still,
Her
Beauty's found beyond the Skill
Of
the best Paynter, to Imbrace
These
lovely Lines within her face.
View
her Soul's Picture, Judgment, witt,
Then
read those Lines which Shee hath writt,
By
Phancy's Pencill drawne alone
Which
Peces but Shee, can justly owne.
Margaret
Cavendish-1666
