Emily Jane Brontë: The Complete Poems | ||

20.
[Long neglect has worn away]
Long neglect has worn away
Half the sweet enchanting smile
Time has turned the bloom to grey
Mould and damp the face defile
Half the sweet enchanting smile
Time has turned the bloom to grey
Mould and damp the face defile
But that lock of silky hair
Still beneath the picture twined
Tells what once those features were
Paints their image on the mind
Still beneath the picture twined
Tells what once those features were
Paints their image on the mind
Fair the hand that traced that line
‘Dearest ever deem me true’
Swiftly flew the fingers fine
When the pen that motto drew
‘Dearest ever deem me true’
Swiftly flew the fingers fine
When the pen that motto drew
