THE FAlR INcoNsrANr

Dost thou still hope thou shalt be fair,
When no more fair to be?
Or those that by thee taken were
Hold their captivity?
Is this thy confidence? NO, no;
Trust 1t not; IT cannot be so.
But thou too late, too late shall find
Twas / that made thee rair;
Thy beauties never from thy mind
But from my loving were;
And those delights that did thee stole
Confessed the vicinage of my soul
The rosy reflex of my heart
Did thy pale cheek attire;
And what | was, not what thou art,
Did gazers-on admire.
Go, and too late thou sha4t confess
l looked thee into loveliness
