(The best's at Florence—see it, if ye will),

They look when leaning over the balcony,

Or stepped from out a picture by Giorgione,

Whose tints are Truth and Beauty at their best;

And when you to Manfrini's palace go,

That picture (howsoever fine the rest)

Is loveliest to my mind of all the show;

It may perhaps be also to your zest

And that's the cause I rhyme upon it so,

'Tis but a portrait of his Son and Wife,
