Beauty of flesh does not long stay

Beauty of flesh does not long stay
The firmness sags and hairs go grey

But in the sweet more beauty blooms
Within the hearts and minds rooms

Though now aged may be the face
There is now within a regal grace

Beauty now within takes true form
Lovelier than when they were born

Kind matrons do not lose beauty fair
It is in the heart and lives on in there
