MATTHEW ROYDON
English poet
(c. 1580 - 1622)

Was never eie did see that face,
  Was never eare did heare that tong,
    Was never minde did minde his grace,
      That ever thought the travell long,
        But eies and eares and ev'ry thought
          Were with his sweete perfections caught.
      - An Elegie--On the Death of Sir Philip Sidney
        [Character]

A sweet attractive kinde of grace,
  A full assurance given by lookes,
    Continuall comfort in a face
      The lineaments of Gospell bookes.
      - Elegie: or a Friend's Passion for his Astrophill
        [Face]
