Those parts of thee that the worlds eye doth view,
Want nothing that the thought of hearts can mend: All toungs (the voice of soules) giue thee that end, Vttring bare truth, euen so as foes Commend. Their outward thus with outward praise is crownd, But those same toungs that giue thee so thine owne, In other accents doe this praise confound By seeing farther then the eye hath showne. They looke into the beauty of thy mind, And that in guesse they measure by thy deeds, Then churls their thoughts (although their eies were kind) To thy faire flower ad the rancke smell of weeds, But why thy odor matcheth not thy show, The solye is this, that thou doest common grow.
