                             True Beauty
                   ________________________

What is the gaudy furniture of dress To the fine unclear of modesty and grace? What is the blooming tincture of the skin To peace of mind and harmony within? What the bright sparkling of the finest eye, To the soft soothing's of a calm reply? Can comeliness of form, of shape, or air, With comeliness of words and deeds compare? No - those at first the unwary heart may gain; But these these only can that heart reatain. _____________________________________________ Loveliness needs not the foriegn aid of ornament, But is, when undorn'd, adorn'd the most. _____________________________________________ Beauty is a fading Flower
