UPON LUCIA DABLED IN THE DEAW, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: My lucia in the deaw did go
Last Line: Deni'd the mask I wo'd have seen.


My Lucia in the deaw did go,
And prettily bedabled so,
Her cloaths held up, she shew'd withall
Her decent legs, cleane, long and small.
I follow'd after to descrie
Part of the nak't sincerity;
But still the envious Scene between
Deni'd the Mask I wo'd have seen.
