I saw her on a nearer view, A Spirit, yet a Woman, too; Her household motions light and free,— And steps of virgin liberty; A countenance in which did meet Sweet records, promises as sweet; A creature not too bright or good, For human nature's daily food, For transient pleasures, artless wiles, Praise, blame, love, kisses, tears, and smiles. —WORDSWORTH.
