J. C. Squire, ed. A Book of Women’s Verse. 1921.

By Mary Elizabeth Coleridge (1861–1907)

A Moment

THE CLOUDS had made a crimson crown

About the mountains high.

The stormy sun was going down

In a stormy sky.

Why did you let your eyes so rest on me,

And hold your breath between?

In all the ages this can never be

As if it had not been.
