Upon a Dying Lady(二)

字號:

II
     Certain Artists bring her Dolls and Drawings
     Bring where our Beauty lies
     A new modelled doll, or drawing,
     With a friend's or an enemy's
     Features, or maybe showing
     Her features when a tress
     Of dull red hair was flowing
     Over some silken dress
     Cut in the Turkish fashion,
     Or, it may be, like a boy's.
     We have given the world our passion,
     We have naught for death but toys.
