Fancies and Fantasticks. 365Eye-brows bent like Cupids bow,Front, an ample field of snow ;Even nose, and cheeke (withall)Smooth as is the Biliard Ball :Chin, as woolly as the Peach ;And his lip should kissing teach,Till he cherish'd too much beard,And made love or me afeard.He should have a hand as softAs the Downe, and shew it oft ;Skin as smooth as any xush,And so thin to see a blushRising through it e're it came,All his blood should be a flameQuickly fir'd as in beginnersIn Loves Schoole, and yet no sinners.Twere too long to speak of allWhat we harmonic do callIn a body should be there.Well he should his cloaths to wear ;Yet no Taylor help to make himDrest, you still for man should take him ;And not think h'had eate a stake,Or were set up in a brake.Valiant he should be as fire,Shewing danger more than ire.Bounteous as the clouds to earth ;And as honest as his birth.
