Her eyes! so full of witchery,

Glow like the Nigris[[244]] tenderly,

Her arching brows their magic fling,

Dark as the raven’s glossy wing.

Soft o’er her blooming cheek is spread

The rich pomegranate’s vivid red;

Her musky ringlets unconfined

In clustering meshes roll behind.

Possessed of every sportive wile,

’Tis heaven, ’tis bliss, to see her smile.”
