_Green Eyes_ (Vol. viii., p. 407.; Vol. ix., p. 112.).--Antoine Heroet, an

early French poet, in the third book of his _Opuscules d'Amour_, has the

following lines:

"Amour n'est pas enchanteur si divers

Que les yeux noirs face devenir _verds_,

Qu'un brun obscur en blancheur clere tourne,

Ou qu'un traict gros du vissage destourne."

(Love is not so strange an enchanter that he can make black eyes become

green, that he can turn a dark brown into clear whiteness, or that he can

change a coarse feature of the face.)
