MY LOVE. A bound, grave face, whose large, blue eyes Are mostly sad,—but oh! when gay, From out their depths a lustre flies, Whose light makes bright the darkest day. A dainty neck, in graceful pose. A comely cheek, whose carmine flush Is full, but tender as the rose, Well-named the modest, maiden blush. Oh, tresses touched with golden gleam I Oh, classic face so calm and proud I Oh, voice as various as the stream 1 Solemn in deeps,—in shallows loud I But musical in all—thou art An idol set in inmost shrine ; My life in life, I but the part Of life so wholly merged in thine. H.S.
