| LXXXVIII. To Dianeme |
| |
| SWEET, be not proud of those two eyes | |
| Which starlike sparkle in their skies; | |
| Nor be you proud that you can see | |
| All hearts your captives, yours yet free; | |
| Be you not proud of that rich hair | 5 |
| Which wantons with the lovesick air; | |
| Whenas that ruby which you wear, | |
| Sunk from the tip of your soft ear, | |
| Will last to be a precious stone | |
| When all your world of beauty's gone. | 10 |
