Mine eye hath played the painter and hath stelled,
Thy beauty`s form in table of my heart,
My body is the frame wherein `tis held,
And perspective it is best painter`s art.
For through the painter must you see his skill,
To find where your true image pictured lies,
Which in my bosom`s shop is hanging still,
That hath his windows glazed with thine eyes:
Now see what good turns eyes for eyes have done,
Mine eyes have drawn thy shape, and thine for me
Are windows to my breast, where-through the sun
Delights to peep, to gaze therein on thee;
Yet eyes this cunning want to grace their art,
They draw but what they see, know not the heart.
