RHODOPE, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Thou hast hera's eyes, thou hast pallas' hands
Last Line: But a god who shall win that heart of thine!
Subject(s): Beauty


Thou hast Hera's eyes, thou hast Pallas' hands,
And the feet of the Queen of the yellow sands,
Thou hast beautiful Aphrodite's breast,
Thou art made of each goddess's loveliest!
Happy is he who sees thy face,
Happy who hears thy words of grace,
And he that shall kiss thee is half divine,
But a god who shall win that heart of thine!
