Ebenezer Elliott


Barren as the wind.	1
Beautiful as a dying maid.	2
Dimensionless as God’s infinity.	3
Like murder, chas’d by conscience, fled.	4
Gazed like one who fronts a foe.	5
Glow like adoration.	6
Blush and glow like angel’s wings.	7
Grasps, like death.	8
Hungry as devouring flame.	9
Pallid as the snow.	10
