  • This famous poem by Lord Byron extols the beauty of women. It praises the feminine charm, i.e. "tender light" of the woman's glowing features, eloquence, and innocent heart. In Byron's case, the woman's charming appearance is exceeded by her inner beauty, making her his ideal woman.
    Music: Requiem In Cello - Hanu Dixit
    She Walks in Beauty by LORD BYRON
    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 mellowed to that tender light
    Which heaven to gaudy day denies.
    One shade the more, one ray the less,
    Had half impaired 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!

    I love the way that poems take on a new character depending on who is reciting them. Well done Loki 🙂

    First time hearing Lord Byron's poetry. I'm in love. With him, with Tom Hiddleston, with whatever man would say that poem to me.

      But soft! What light through yonder window breaks?
      It is the east, and Juliet is the sun.
      Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon,
      Who is already sick and pale with grief,
      That thou, her maid, art far more fair than she...

    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 mellowed to that tender light Which heaven to gaudy day denies.
    One shade the more, one ray the less, Had half impaired 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.

      most people can't understand or don't know who byron is, and because the earlier romantic writers have been supplanted by gelatinous victorian fluff.
