Her brow was white and low, her cheek’s pure dye

Like twilight rosy still with the set sun;

Short upper lip⁠—sweet lips! that make us sigh

Ever to have seen such; for she was one

Fit for the model of a statuary

(A race of mere impostors, when all’s done⁠—

I’ve seen much finer women, ripe and real,

Than all the nonsense of their stone ideal).
