Disappointed, we turn with contempt and disdain
From a form, though angelic, if heartless and vain;
But if mind and if heart correspond with the face,
To love and esteem admiration gives place;
'T is the mind which alone can illumine the whole;
Beauty attracts the sight, but sweetness wins the soul.
