ladies’ names. 103 
Signification . . Becoming bitter. 
Emblem .Citron. 
Sentiment . . . Beautiful, but ill-humored 
What care I for your handsome face, 
Where rose and lily blend? 
When nothing in your heart or mind, 
I could or would commend. 
I like to look on beauty well 
Of figure and of face ; 
But I love that beauty better, 
Which in good deeds I trace. 
There’s many a gaudy flower, 
At first attracts the sight; 
But when we find no fragrance there, 
It gives us less delight. 
Your beauty is a gaudy show; 
’Tis like the scentless flower; 
And when you let ill-temper reign, 
We feel its bitter power.
