Poet Analysis

First Line: HIGH WAS HER HEART, AND YET WAS WELL INCLINED
Last Line: MINSTRELS, AND KINGS, AND HIGH-BORN DAMES, AND OF THE BEST THAT BE.
Subject(s): HOOPER, ANNE STURGIS;
High was her heart, and yet was well inclined,
Her manners made of bounty well refined;
Far capitals, and marble courts, her eye still seemed to see,
Minstrels, and kings, and high-born dames, and of the best that be.
