Citation | IJ.783.007 15 Dec 1783:41 (5) BEAUTY'S VALUE by Shakespeare, from a corrected manuscript. Beauty is but a vain and fleeting good, A shining gloss that fadeth suddenly; A flower that dies, when almost in the bud, A brittle glass, that breaketh presently: A fleeting good, a gloss, a glass, a flower, Lost, faded, broken, dead within the hour. . . .
