CLOTHES DO BUT CHEAT AND COZEN US, by                 Poet's Biography
First Line: Away with silks, away with lawn
Last Line: Is wone with flesh, not drapery.
Subject(s): Clothing & Dress; Love


Away with silks, away with Lawn,
Ile have no Sceans, or Curtains drawn:
Give me my Mistresse, as she is,
Drest in her nak't simplicities:
For as my Heart, ene so mine Eye
Is wone with flesh, not Drapery.
