The Value of women
Your temple bestow great beauty and value

That no wealth nor riches on this earth

Could approach your worth

Nor could Donatello sculpt such a statue



Rome's power would plead for A. Chance

to obtain the modern Mona Lisa

Which God painted within your features

That you bless the world with a glance



Man's hands are stained with greed and vice

And though he blinds with obscurity

To weaken your purity

He shall never taint your value, your price
