Poem by Thomas Wyatt

A Description of Such a One As He Would Love

A face that should content me wondrous well
Should not be fair but lovely to behold,
With gladsome cheer all grief for to expel;
With sober looks so would I that it should
Speak without words such words as none can tell;
Her tress also should be of crisped gold;
With wit; and thus might chance I might be tied,
And knit again the knot that should not slide. 

1. Alas Madam for Stealing of a Kiss
2. I Abide and Abide and Better Abide
3. In Spain
4. Since so Ye Please
5. The Furious Gun
