“ Beauty, like other pow'rs, maintains Her empire, and by union reigns; Each single feature faintly warms, But where at once we view display'd Unblemish'd grace, the perfect maid Our eyes, our ears, our heart alarms. So when on earth the God of day Obliquely sheds his temper'd ray, Through convex orbs the beams transmit, The beams that gently warm'd before, Collected, gently warm no more, But glow with more prevailing heat. This work was published before January 1, 1928, and is in the public domain worldwide because the author died at least 100 years ago. ”
