Mathew Roydon. Circa 1586
A sweet attractive kinde of grace,
A full assurance given by lookes,
Continuall comfort in a face
The lineaments of Gospell bookes.
An Elegie; or Friend's Passion for his Astrophill.[23:1]
Was never eie did see that face,
Was never eare did heare that tong,
Was never minde did minde his grace,
That ever thought the travell long;
But eies and eares and ev'ry thought
Were with his sweete perfections caught.
An Elegie; or Friend's Passion for his Astrophill.
