Brown is my Love
source:
Anon.
Brown is my Love, but graceful:
And each renowned whiteness,
Matched with her lovely brown loseth its brightness.
Fair is my Love, but scornful,
Yet have I seen despisèd
Dainty white lilies, and sad flowers well prizèd.
And each renowned whiteness,
Matched with her lovely brown loseth its brightness.
Fair is my Love, but scornful,
Yet have I seen despisèd
Dainty white lilies, and sad flowers well prizèd.
