Against painting Nut-browne Dalia

D ALIA still paints; so, Nature hurts with Arte,
 And forme with fashion vtterly doth spill;
She (glo-worme like) doth shine, if put apart,
But neere at hand, she lookes as blacke, as ill:
 Then Dalia, paint no more with colours bright:
 Because, the ground that beares them killes them quite.
