NO LOATHSOMENESS IN LOVE, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: What I fancy, I approve, / no dislike there is in love
Last Line: She's to me a paragon.
Subject(s): Love


What I fancy, I approve,
No Dislike there is in love:
Be my Mistresse short or tall,
And distorted there-withall:
Be she likewise one of those,
That an Acre hath of Nose:
Be her forehead, and her eyes
Full of incongruities:
Be her cheeks so shallow too,
As to shew her Tongue wag through:
Be her lips ill hung, or set,
And her grinders black as jet;
Ha's she thinne haire, hath she none,
She's to me a Paragon.
