THE LADY OF THE SOUTH by PERCY BYSSHE SHELLEY

Poet Analysis

First Line: FAINT WITH LOVE, THE LADY OF THE SOUTH
Last Line: OUT OF HER EYES.

FAINT with love, the Lady of the South
Lay in the paradise of Lebanon
Under a heaven of cedar boughs; the drouth
Of love was on her lips; the light was gone
Out of her eyes.
