Subject: to be drest+arts' hid+taketh lit.
BEN JONSON (1572-1637)
Still to be neat, still to be drest,
As you were going to a feast;
Still to be powder'd, still perfumed:
Lady, it's to be presumed,
That arts' hid causes are not found,
All is not sweet, all in not sound.
Give me a look, give me a face,
That makes simplicity a grace;
Robes loosely flowing, hair as free:
Such sweet neglect more taketh me,
Than all th' adulteries of art,
They stride mine eyes, but no me heart.

Помогите, пожалуйста с переводом "drest", "hid" и "taketh". Спасибо)
