Thus is his cheeke the map of daies out-worne,
When beauty liu'd and dy'ed as flowers do now, Before these bastard signes of faire were borne, Or durst inhabit on a liuing brow: Before the goulden tresses of the dead, The right of sepulchers, were shorne away, To liue a scond life on second head, Ere beauties dead fleece made another gay: In him those holy antique howers are seene, Without all ornament, it selfe and true, Making no summer of an others greene, Robbing no ould to dresse his beauty new, And him as for a map doth Nature store, To shew faulse Art what beauty was of yore.
