SHE WALKS IN BEAUTY
She walks in beauty like the might
Of cloudless climes and starry skies; And all that's best of dark and bright Meets in her aspect and ker eyes: Thus mellow'd to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.
One shade the more, one ray the less
Had half impair'd the nameless grace Which waves in every raven tresa,
Or softly lightens o'er her face- Where thoughts screnely sweet express
How pure, how dear their dwelling-place.
And on that check, and o'er that brow, ......So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
The similes that win, the tints that glow..
But tell of days in goodness spent,
A mind at peace with all below,
A heart whose love is innocent.
