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 mellow'd to that tender light/ Which heaven to gaudy day denies. One shade the more, one ray the less,/ Had half impart 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!

=Analysis = I feel like this poem is beautiful and expressive because it is used to describing a woman he loves and adores. this poem uses a lot of metaphors and similes. this poem is his way of expressing his love for a woman he was married to.

=Rhyme Scheme = ABABAB CDCDCD EFEFEF =When We two parted = When we two parted/ In silence and tears,/ Half broken-hearted/ To sever for years,/ Pale grew thy cheek and cold,/ Colder thy kiss;/ Truly that hour foretold/ Sorrow to this./ The dew of the morning/ Sunk chill on my brow--/ It felt like the warning/ Of what I feel now./ Thy vows are all broken,/ And light is thy fame:/ I hear thy name spoken,/ And share in its shame./ They name thee before me,/ A knell to mine ear;/ A shudder comes o'er me--/ Why wert thou so dear?/ They know not I knew thee,/ Who knew thee too well:/ Lond, long shall I rue thee,/ Too deeply to tell./ I secret we met--/ I silence I grieve,/ That thy heart could forget,/ Thy spirit deceive./ If I should meet thee/ After long years,/ How should I greet thee?/ With silence and tears.

=Analysis = This poem is depressing and about a woman he loved and lost. This poem doesn't really use any poetic devices.

<span style="background-color: #240000; color: #c700ff; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">Oh! snatched away in beauty's bloom,/ On thee shall press no ponderous tomb;/ But on thy turf shall roses rear/ Their leaves, the earliest of the year;/ And the wild cypress wave in tender gloom: And oft by yon blue gushing stream/ Shall Sorrow lean her drooping head,/ And feed deep thought with many a dream,/ And lingering pause and lightly tread;/ Fond wretch! as if her step disturbed the dead!// Away! ye know that tears are vain,That death nor heeds nor hears distress:/ Will this unteach us to complain?/ Or make one mourner weep the less?/ And thou -who tell'st me to forget,/ Thy looks are wan, thine eyes are wet.
