Female Beauty

Felices ter et amplius Quos irrupta tenet Copula, nec malis Divulsus querimoniis, Suprema citius solvet amor die. What's Female Beauty, but an Art divine, Through which the Mind's all gentle Graces shine? They like the Sun irradiate all between; The Body charms, because the Mind is seen.
