COMPARISON

Less soft a Tyrian robe
  Of texture fine,
Less delicate a rose
  Than flesh of thine.

Whiter thy breast than snow
  That virgin lies,
And deeper than the blue
  Of seas thy eyes.

More golden than the fruit
  Of orange trees,
Thy locks that floating lure
  The satyr breeze.

Less fine of silver string
  An Orphic lyre,
Less sweet than thy low laugh
  That wakes desire.
