SHE walks in beauty, like the night A
Of cloudless climes and starry skies, B
And all that's best of dark and bright A
Meets in her aspect and her eyes; B
Thus mellow'd to that tender light A 5
Which Heaven to gaudy day denies. B
*8 syballus per sentence.
One shade the more, one ray the less, C
Had half impair'd the nameless grace D
Which waves in every raven tress C
Or softly lightens o'er her face, D 10 ---> 9!
Where thoughts serenely sweet express C
How pure, how dear their dwelling-place. D
And on that cheek and o'er that brow E -->9
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent, F
The smiles that win, the tints that glow, E 15 -->9
But tell of days in goodness spent,— F
A mind at peace with all below, E
A heart whose love is innocent F
--> rhyme scheme= easy
