“My esteemed patroness’s eyes are as resplendent as the sun (here, he lifted his eyes to the sky),

And I may, without fear of being accused of exaggeration, say that apples are not as red as her lips are red (he puckered his lips for emphasis).

The snowy whiteness of her neck is nothing like your own dun (he tilted his head to reveal his neck),

And if hairs were to be considered wires, why, there must be dark wires growing on your head (he took his hand away from hers to tug wildly at a strand of his own hair).

And I must own—for who could not?—that there are wondrous roses, red and white,

To be found in her ladyship’s noble cheeks (he patted his cheek fondly).

And certainly, in some perfumes can more delight be found

Than in the breath that from your mouth reeks (he feigned he was recoiling from his cousin’s face).

I love to hear my patroness speak, and I also know

That music could never have such a pleasing sound (a smile stretched the corners of his mouth).

I never saw quite such an angel of knowledge and goodness go

As she, my lady, who scarcely treads the ground (he began flapping his arms much like a bird before bringing the paper back to his face once more to read).

Yet my love for you, Miss Elizabeth, is quite rare,

And I think the inestimable future of our love is beyond compare.”
