    Her eye (I'm very fond of handsome eyes)
    Was large and dark, suppressing half its fire
    Until she spoke, then through its soft disguise
    Flash'd an expression more of pride than ire,
    And love than either; and there would arise,
    A something in them which was not desire,
    But would have been, perhaps, but for the soul,
    Which struggled through and chansten'd down the whole.
