Love

On the Eyes of Miss A----H----

by Lord Byron 1788–1824

From Poems Original and Translated

Love

Anne's Eye is liken'd to the Sun,
From it such Beams of Beauty fall;
And this can be denied by none,
For like the Sun, it shines on All.

Then do not admiration smother,
Or say these glances don't become her;
To you, or I, or any other
Her Sun, displays perpetual Summer.
