This is from the Sean Bean series about Richard Sharpe.

"My Love in her attire... doth show her wit,

It doth so well become her.

For every season she has dressings fit,

For winter, spring, and summer.

No beauty she doth miss

When all her robes are on...

HARRIS: But beauty's self she is

When all her robes are gone."

A fine poem.

First published as A Poetical Rhapsody in 1602

But, personally, I think it was written
by Francis Davison.

NOTHING. Sounds like she is wearing NOTHING.
