And dumb presagers of my speaking breast
Who plead for love and look for recompense
More than that love that more hath more express”

You have “looks” instead of “books” which makes no sense. The final lines are
“O learn to read what silent love hath writ
To hear with eyes belongs to love’s fine wit.”
