But she would spell him backward: if fair-faced,
[062] She would swear the gentleman should be her sister;
[063] If black, why, Nature, drawing of an antique,
Made a foul blot; if tall, a lance ill-headed;
[065] If low, an agate very vilely cut;
If speaking, why, a vane blown with all winds;
If silent, why, a block moved with none.
So turns she every man the wrong side out;
And never gives to truth and virtue that
070 Which simpleness and merit purchaseth.
