Murmuring how she loved me she
Too weak, for all her heart's endeavor,
To set its struggling passion free
From pride, and vainer ties dissever,
And give herself to me forever.
(excerpt from "Porphyria's Lover" by Robert Browning)
Quite clear to such an one, and say. "Just this
Or that in you disgusts me; here you miss,
Or there exceed the mark"and if she let
Herself be lessoned so, nor plainly set
(excerpt from "My Last Duchess" by Robert Browning)
For only last night, as they whispered, I brought
My own eyes to bear on her so, that I thought
Could I keep them one half minute fixed, she would fall
Shrivelled; she fell not; yet this does it all!
(excerpt from "The Laboratory" by Robert Browning)
