Poet Analysis

First Line: OH! TURN THOSE EYES AWAY FROM ME
Last Line: BY THE WARM BLOOD THAT MANTLES THERE.

Oh! turn those eyes away from me!
Though sweet, yet fearful are their rays;
And though they beam so tenderly,
I feel I tremble 'neath their gaze.
Oh, urn those eyes away! for though
To meet their glance I may not dare,
I know their light is on my brow
By the warm blood that mantles there.
