SONG from Two Gentlemen of Verona by Shakespeare

 William Shakespeare (1564-1616)


SONG (Two Gentlemen of Verona IV,ii.)


Who is Silvia? what is she?

  That all our swains commend her?

Holy, fair, and wise is she;

  The heaven such grace did lend her,

That she might admired be.


Is she kind as she is fair?

  For beauty lives with kindness:

Love doth to her eyes repair,

  To help him of his blindness,

And, being help'd, inhabits there.


Then to Silvia let us sing,

  That Silvia is excelling;

She excels each mortal thing

  Upon the dull earth dwelling;

To her let us garlands bring.
