Metals may blazon common beauties; she

30Makes pearls and planets humble heraldry.

As, then, a purer substance is defined

But by a heap of negatives combined,

Ask what a spirit is, you'll hear them cry

It hath no matter, no mortality:

So can I not define how sweet, how fair;

Only I say she 's not as others are.

For what perfections we to others grant,

It is her sole perfection to want.
