Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Poems of Robert Browning: From the Author´s Revised Text of 1889; His Own Selections With Additions From His Latest Works My Star. All that I know Of a certain star Is, it can throw (Like the angled spar) Now a dart of red, Now a dart of blue; Till my friends have said They would fain see, too, My star that dartles the red and the blue! Then it stops like a bird; like a flower, hangs furled: They must solace themselves with the Saturn above it. What matter to me if their star is a world? Mine has opened its soul to me; therefore I love it. A Face. If one could have that little head of hers Painted upon a background of pale gold, Such as the Tuscan´s early art prefers! No shade encroaching on the matchless mold Of those two lips, which should be opening soft In the pure profile; not as when she laughs, For that spoils all: but rather as if aloft Yon hyacinth, she loves so, leaned its staff´s Burthen of honey-colored buds, to kiss And capture ´twixt the lips apart for this. Then her lithe neck, three fingers might surround. How it should waver, on the pale gold ground, Up to the fruit-shaped, perfect chin it lifts!
