Another.

AS I beheld a Winters Evening Air,
Curl'd in her court false locks of living hair,
Butter'd with Jessamine the Sun left there.

Galliard and c…inquant she appear'd to give,
A Serenade or Ball to us that grieve,
And teach us Alamode more gently live.

But as a Moor, who to her Cheeks prefers
White Spots t'allure her black Idolaters,
Me thought she look'd all ore bepatch'd with Stars.

Like the dark front of some Ethiopian Queen,
Vailed all ore with Gems of Red, Blew, Green;
Whose …gly Night seem'd masked with days Skreen.

Whilst the fond people offer'd Sacrifice
To Saphyrs 'stead of Veins and Arteries,
And bow'd unto the Diamonds, not her Eyes,

Behold Lucasta's Face, how't glows like Noon!
A Sun intire is her complexion,
And form'd of one whole Constellation.

So gently shining, so serene, so cleer,
Her look doth Universal Nature cheer;
Only a cloud or two hangs here and there.
