Ode IV
Her beauty radiates most brilliant
A star compares as strong
As to the strength of a full-grown buck
To that of new-born fawn
The morning sunlight in her hair
Could light an eclipsed moon
Her eyes do sparkle far greater
Than a crystal ‘flecting noon
I know not if this love of mine
Shares in my admiration
If not, her beauty then, alone
Can yield my celebration
This beauty live though far away
Inside my heart, for ever and a day
