Lips and Eyes.
IN Celia's face a question did ariseWhich were more beautifull, her Lips or Eyes:Wee (said the Eyes) send forth those poynted dartsWhich pierce the hardest adamantine hearts.From us (reply'd the Lips) proceed those blisses,Which Lovers reap by kind words, and sweet kisses.
descriptionPage 6
Then wept the Eyes, and from their springs did powrOf liquid orientall pearl a showr.Whereat the Lips mov'd with delight and pleasure,Through a sweet smile unlock'd their pearlie treasure;And bade Love judge, whether did adde more grace,Weeping, or smiling, pearles in Celia's face.
