She's fair and good, they say.

Hen. But not as you.

Her princess feet like well the solid earth.

She is a flower that sips of sun and dew.

But feedeth most from root-cups firm in ground;

While you are made of music, love, and air,—

A being of the sky—a lover's star,

Although he be a king. The grace of heaven

About your beauty plays, and drops as soft

Upon my eyes as light from the lark's wing.
