"She Walks In Beauty"
She walks in beauty, 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 half impaired 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
