EMBLEMS OF LOVE: 18. HARD TO BE PLEASED by PHILIP AYRES

First Line: SEE HOW SHE PICKS, AND CUTS, AND CASTS ASIDE
Last Line: AND THUS SHE DOES HER LOVERS ENTERTAIN.
Subject(s): LOVE; SELECTIVITY;

SEE how she picks, and cuts, and casts aside,
Whilst the scorned flowers look pale at her disdain!
This is the triumph of her nicer Pride,
And thus she does her lovers entertain.
