Eyes and Lips.

The Second Duell.



Eyes.Let idle, prating lovers seeke
There fortunes in lip-rhetorick;
He study loves astroligye
I' th' doble sphere of beutyes eye.
Lips.Let idle, gasing lovers spy
There fates i' th' sphere of ether eye;
He reade loves sunshine or eclips
In beutys markd and naked lips.
E.I hope to Venus none deny
But that, in loves astronomy,
The eyes aford the best aspect;
And what would lovers more afect?
