She Walks in Beauty Stanzas 2 and 3
One shade the more, one ray the less, Had half impaired the nameless grace • Light and darkness are contrasted Which waves in every raven tress, Or softly lightens o’er her face; • Her hair is mentioned as dangling in her face Where thoughts serenely sweet express How pure, how dear their dwelling place. • Her thoughts are in her sweet head
And on that cheek, and o’er that brow, So soft, so calm, yet eloquent, • Beautiful but eloquent The smiles that win, the tints that glow, But tell of days in goodness spent, • Small details of her face A mind at peace with all below, A heart whose love is innocent! • She is at peace and loves
