Still watching ever his divine disdain.
XCVII.
— Time past : — and when that German lady came Again to Paris, where the image stands, (It was in August, and the hot sun-flame Shot thro' the windows) — midst the gazing bands She sought for her whose white-beseeching hands Spoke so imploringly before the stone, (The Provence girl) — she asked; but she was gone.
XCVIII.
Whither none knew ; — Some said that she Avould come Always at morning with her blooming store. And gaze upon the marble, pale an...d dumb, Till-: tiUa OF PROVENCE. 119 But thai, they thought, the tender worship wore The gh-l to death ; for o'er her eyes and o'er Her paling cheek hues like the grave were spread : And one at last knew further ; — She was dead.
XCIX.
She died, mad as the winds, — mad as the sea Which rages for the beauty of the moon. Mad as the poet is whose fancies flee Up to the stars to claim some boundless boon. Mad as the forest when the tempests tune Their breath to song and shake its leafy pride, Yet trembling like its shadows : —So she died.
