O woman sweet witchingly woman 

Amid the worlds bustle & strife 

Thourt the only sweet blossom thats blooming 

Perfuming the garden of life 

Thourt the only pure fountain thats given 

From whence all true pleasures doth flow 

The angels are unknowns of heaven 

But womans real angels below 


Our lives woud be lives of vexation 

Our days woud be days of despair 

Wi out the sweet jems of creation 

Soft women to sweeten our care 

& powers that formd beauty protect us 

If weaknesses cant be conseald 

Shoud we view heavens joys as conjectures 

& women as heaven reveald 


& far be a souls savage natures 

That cannot wi tenderness burn 

That turns from a look of such creatures 

As one from a statue woud turn 

When beauty its charms are unsealing 

From glances of eyes dewey blue 

Devoid must they be of all feeling 

That thrills wi no raptures to view 


O women sweet witchin[g]ly women 

Amid the worlds bustle & strife 

Yere the only sweet blossom thats blooming 

Perfuming the garden of life 

Yere the only pure fountain that[s] given 

From whence real happiness flow 

While angels are unknowns of heaven 

Sweet womens provd angels below
