  His eyes divine were shot with light Like flashes in a northern night, Magnetic gleam that wrought a spell On whom its star-like shimmer fell— A spell of wonder and delight;— Enchantment such as gods excite With glowing depths of chrysolite, Or blooming beds of asphodel— His eyes divine! In metaphysics recondite, In realms of verse by royal right Of Genevieve and Christabel The first upon the mystic shell; And yet his greatest charm and might Were eyes divine! |
