      If Saphyres, loe! her eies be Saphyres plaine; / If Rubies, loe! hir lips be Rubies sound; / If Pearles, hir teeth be pearles, both pure and round; / If Yvorie, her forehead yvory weene; / If Gold, her locks are finest gold on ground; / If Silver, her faire hands are silver sheene: / But that which fairest is but few behold, / Her mind, adornd with vertues manifold."
