Robert Bridges (English)

Bright as the rippling ocean in sunshine.

Flash’d like a jewel.

Beauty … flaunts like the coral of summer flower.

Lively as fire.

As pure and glad as he whom first God in Eden placed.

Soft as the dew on flowers of spring,
Sweet as the hidden drops that swell their honey-throated chalicing.
