And her fair eyes the fields around her dressed

With flowers, and the winds and storms she stilled

With utterance unskilled

As from a tongue that seeketh yet the breast,

(Sonnet 25.)

As oft as yon white foot on fresh green sod

Comelily sets the gentle step, a dower

Of grace, that opens and revives each flower,

Seems by the delicate palm to be bestowed.

(Sonnet 132.)
