My Mistress’s eyes are nothing like the sun
Coral is far more red than her lips red.
If snow be white, why then her breast are dun.
If hairs be wires, black wires grows on her head.
I have seen Roses damasked, red and white,
But no such Roses seen I, in her cheeks.
And in some perfumes there is more delight
Than in the breath that from my Mistress reeks
I love to hear her speak, yet well I know that
Music hath a far more pleasing sound.
I grant I never saw a goddess go
My mistress when she walks treads on the ground
And yet by heaven I think my love as rare
As any she belied with false compares
No responses
