DIANA, by JULIEN AUGUSTE PELAGE BRIZEUX Poet's Biography First Line: Lower thy large pure eyes Last Line: Oft beauty snares and slays. Alternate Author Name(s): Brizeux, Auguste Subject(s): Beauty | |||
LOWER thy large pure eyes, Blue as the skies; Lower thy large pure eyes. Thy faultless body veil, So chaste and pale; Thy faultless body veil. Thy lips let silence tie While I pass by; Thy lips let silence tie. For sight of beauty slays Who dares to gaze. Oft beauty snares and slays. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...VARIATIONS: 14 by CONRAD AIKEN DIVINELY SUPERFLUOUS BEAUTY by ROBINSON JEFFERS THE BEAUTY OF THINGS by ROBINSON JEFFERS HOPE IS NOT FOR THE WISE by ROBINSON JEFFERS LIFE FROM THE LIFELESS by ROBINSON JEFFERS REARMAMENT by ROBINSON JEFFERS SHANE ONEILLS CAIRN by ROBINSON JEFFERS ATTUNED by JULIEN AUGUSTE PELAGE BRIZEUX |
