A poem by Herman Melville

The Marchioness Of Brinvilliers

________________________________________________
Title:     The Marchioness Of Brinvilliers
Author: Herman Melville [More Titles by Melville]

He toned the sprightly beam of morning
With twilight meek of tender eve,
Brightness interfused with softness,
Light and shade did weave:
And gave to candor equal place
With mystery starred in open skies;
And, floating all in sweetness, made
Her fathomless mild eyes.








[The end]
Herman Melville's poem: Marchioness Of Brinvilliers
