Lovely forms do flow
From conceit divinely framed;
Heaven is music, and thy beauty's
Birth is heavenly.

Observations in the Art of English Poesie (1602)

Rose-cheeked Laura, come;
Sing thou smoothly with thy beauty’s
Silent music, either other
Sweetly gracing.

Observations in the Art of English Poesie (1602)

Only beauty purely loving
Knows no discord,
But still moves delight,
Like clear springs renewed by flowing,
Ever perfect, ever in themselves eternal.
