Want to Read" Ô beaux cheveux d'argent mignonnement retors Ô beaux cheveux d'argent mignonnement retors ! Ô front crêpe et serein ! et vous, face dorée ! Ô beaux yeux de cristal ! ô grand bouche honorée, Qui d'un large repli retrousses tes deux bords ! Ô belles dents d'ébène ! ô précieux trésors, Qui faites d'un seul ris toute âme enamourée ! Ô gorge damasquine en cent plis figurée ! Et vous, beaux grands tétins, dignes d'un si beau corps ! Ô beaux ongles dorés ! ô main courte et grassette ! Ô cuisse délicate ! et vous, jambe grossette, Et ce que je ne puis honnêtement nommer ! Ô beau corps transparent ! ô beaux membres de glace ! Ô divines beautés ! pardonnez-moi, de grâce, Si, pour être mortel, je ne vous ose aimer."-Joachim du Bellay, The Regrets
