Edmund Spenser - Amoretti III: The Sovereign BeautyEdmund Spenser - Amoretti III: The Sovereign Beauty
Work rating: Low


    The sovereign beauty which I do admire,     Witness the world how worthy to be praised:     The light whereof hath kindled heavenly fire     In my frail spirit, by her from baseness raised;     That being now with her huge brightness dazed,     Base thing I can no more endure to view;     But looking still on her, I stand amazed     At wondrous sight of so celestial hue.     So when my tongue would speak her praises due,   It stopped is with thought`s astonishment:   And when my pen would write her titles true,   It ravish`d is with fancy`s wonderment:   Yet in my heart I then both speak and write   The wonder that my wit cannot endite.
