SHE WALK8 IN BEAUTY.
She walks In beaut*. like the night
Of 'cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that's best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes;
Thus mellowed to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.
One shade the more, one ray the less.
Had halftimpalred the nameless
grace
Which waves In every raven tress.
Or softly lightens o'er her face:
Where thoughts serenely sweet express
How pure, how dear their dwelling
place.
And on that cheek, and o'er that brow.
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent.
The smiles 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!
—Lord Byron.
