FRAGMENT, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: Her flowing locks, the raven's wing
Last Line: A crimson still diviner!
Subject(s): Beauty


Her flowing locks, the raven's wing,
Adown her neck and bosom hing;
How sweet unto that breast to cling,
And round that neck entwine her!

Her lips are roses wat wi' dew,
O' what a feast her bonnie mou'!
Her cheeks a mair celestial hue,
A crimson still diviner!
