Explore "How Clear She Shines. Ellis Bell" by Charlotte Brontë on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
How clear she shines! How quietly / I lie beneath her guardian light; / While heaven and earth are whispering me, / "To morrow, wake, but dream to-night. " / Yes, Fancy, come, my Fairy love! / These throbbing temples softly kiss; / And bend my lonely couch above, / And bring me rest, and bring me bliss.
The world is going; dark world, adieu! / Grim world, conceal thee till the day; / The heart thou canst not all subdue / Must still resist, if thou delay!
