Percy Bysshe Shelley - From the Arabic, an ImitationPercy Bysshe Shelley - From the Arabic, an Imitation
Work rating: Medium


MY faint spirit was sitting in the light    Of thy looks, my love;    It panted for thee like the hind at noon    For the brooks, my love. Thy barb, whose hoofs outspeed the tempest`s flight,    Bore thee far from me;    My heart, for my weak feet were weary soon,    Did companion thee. Ah! fleeter far than fleetest storm or steed,    Or the death they bear,    The heart which tender thought clothes like a dove    With the wings of care; In the battle, in the darkness, in the need,    Shall mine cling to thee,    Nor claim one smile for all the comfort, love,    It may bring to thee.
