Before seeing Laura I had but a slight idea of the degree of loveliness which a mortal shape may wear. In her I beheld such as was never dreamed of. Even by the great artists who have embodied on canvas or in marble the form of incarnate beauty, or the inspired poets who have gazed upon her unvailed divinity. Radiant eyes marble brow alabaster neck ruby lips shape of perfect symmetry long glossy curls of raven hair flowing in waving wreaths over ivory shoulders cheeks whose young and verrniel b...loom seem fresher than rosebuds moistened by the dew of spring these are expressions that have been often used, and, perhaps, sometimes with a semblance of truth ; and are things which language can half describe, and painting can fully portray The magic of her appearance was derived from something loftier and nobler. It was not merely that her eyes beamed with a luster beside which the diamond's blaze would have been dim, but that in their pure rays the divine spirit within most divinely shone not that each movement was perfect gracefulness, but that with all of lovely and holy which the enthusiast can fancy in an angel, there was mingled the warm passion and tenderness of earth.
