1019. THE HEAD OF A GIRL.
Greuze (French: 1725-1805). See 206.
I will paint her as I see her....
With a forehead fair and saintly,
Which two blue eyes under-shine,
Like meek prayers before a shrine.
Face and figure of a child,—
Though too calm, you think, and tender,
For the childhood you would lend her.
Mrs. Browning: A Portrait.
1020. GIRL WITH AN APPLE.
Greuze (French: 1725-1805). See 206.
A cloud of yellow hair
Is round about her ear.
She hath a mouth of grace,
And forehead sweet and fair.
Austin Dobson: A Song of Angiola.
