For looks and sighs true love can best express.

And he whose words his passions right can tell
Doth more in words than in true love excel.
Doth more in words than in true love excel.}}

A painted tale by poets’ skill devised,
Where words well plac’d great store of love profess’d,
In Love’s attire can never mask disguis’d;
For looks and sighs true love can best express.
And he whose words his passions right can tell
Doth more in words than in true love excel.
