Styled but the shadows of us men? [ Ben Jonson ]

Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that's best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes;
Thus mellow'd to that tender light
Which Heaven to gaudy day denies. [ Byron, She Walks in Beauty ]

No words suffice the secret soul to show,
For truth denies all eloquence to woe. [ Byron ]

In every bosom where her nest is made.
Hatched by the beams of truth, denies him rest,
And proves a raging scorpion in his breast. [ Cowper ]
