Rosalind
By William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
 
From “As You Like It,” Act III. Scene 2

FROM the east to western Ind,
No jewel is like Rosalind.
Her worth, being mounted on the wind,
Through all the world bears Rosalind.
All the pictures, fairest lined,        5
Are but black to Rosalind.
Let no fair be kept in mind,
But the fair of Rosalind.
