On this my glory! see the grace! the size!
Was ever stem so tall, so stout, so strong,
Exact in breadth, in just proportion, long!

These brilliant hues are all distinct and clean,
No kindred tint, no blending streaks between;
This is no shaded, run-off[55], pin-eyed[56] thing,
A king of flowers, a flower for England's king:
I own my pride, and thank the favouring star,
Which shed such beauty on my fair Bizarre[57]."
