- Can't I another's face commend, And to her virtues be a friend, But instantly your forehead lowers, As if her merit lessen'd yours?
- The maid who modestly conceals Her beauties, while she hides, reveals; Give but a glimpse, and fancy draws Whate'er the Grecian Venus was.

- Time still, as he flies, brings increase to her truth, And gives to her mind what he steals from her youth.
- Labour for his pains.
