Let view your form now in the mirror's eye Your words of thought, are none that match to mine As yours speak blemish, wrinkles, ageing by But I see true; that youth and glass align. Reflecting that; of springtime glow of May Arrays of buds are none when paired to you And first your glance that welcomes me the day Were first to shine, whilst sun; the second hue. Still have you won, 'neath all of nature's lush A beauty signed your birth with binding deeds And out the sunset still; your redden blush As tho' your face onto the sky it feeds
Know now you are as were when years were fresh Ah, see! The lines have gone from out your flesh.
