the 2nd girl had blonde hair and blue eyes.
"your hair is the color of a very old smoke stained wedding dress, and your eyes are as blue as blue smarties. your skin is as soft as fresh bread, and your teeth are as white as chalk"
the 3rd girl had brown hair and green eyes.
"your hair is as brown as freshly plowed dirt. your eyes are as green as the abdomen of a fruit fly. your smile is as endearing as a $100 dollar note"
By the way I love this description "your hair is as black as pitch, and your eyes are the color of soot." That's awesome!
These descriptions remind me of a shakespear sonnet:
My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun,
Coral is far more red than her lips red,
If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun,
If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.
I have seen roses damasked, red and white,
But no such roses see I in her cheeks,
And in some perfumes is there more delight,
That in the breath that from my mistress reeks.
I love to hear her speak, yet well I know
That music hath a more pleasing sound,
I grant I never saw a goddess go,
My mistress when she walks treads on the ground.
And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare
As any she belied with false compare.
