Grace Perfumed

i need help in my poetry project heeelp plz i have to do an analysis of a poem i have no idea how 2 do it heel

STILL to be neat, still to be dressed,
As you were going to a feast;
Still to be powder'd, still perfumed:
Lady, it is to be presumed,
Though art's hid causes are not found,
All is not sweet, all is 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 strike mine eyes, but not my heart.

A man is talking to (or about) the woman he loves. She hasn't yet put on her make-up, or her fancy dress. He says to her that he finds her more beautiful without these adornments. These "adulteries of art" make her pretty to see, but without them on her, he sees her natural beauty and this touches his heart.

Notes: The word "still" has several meanings. Look it up and decide which one fits best. "Adulteries" doesn't mean now what it meant then. Look it up, and look for the words that are very near to it. "As you" is used to mean "as if you." "Hid"= hidden. "Taketh" is the old way of saying "takes."

Pete Kendall: Offers of untold riches keep rolling into e-mail’s inbox
While speaking on the subject of communication several years ago to a group of several hundred ladies, I repeated the apocryphal story of the fellow, in this case me, who finds a perfumed letter in his mailbox, tears it open eagerly and reads the following sweet words: “I love you. I can’t live without you. Marry me or I will hurl myself from the tallest window of this castle.”
