- | |
Haunted of Beauty like the marvellous youth | B |
Who sang Saint Agnes' Eve How passing fair | C |
Her shapes took color in thy homestead air | C |
How on thy canvas even her dreams were truth | B |
Magician who from commonest elements | D |
Called up divine ideals clothed upon | E |
By mystic lights soft blending into one | F |
Womanly grace and child like innocence | G |
Teacher I thy lesson was not given in vain | H |
Beauty is goodness ugliness is sin | I |
Art's place is sacred nothing foul therein | I |
May crawl or tread with bestial feet profane | H |
If rightly choosing is the painter's test | J |
Thy choice O master ever was the best | J |
John Greenleaf Whittier
