I deck myself with silks and jewelry,
         I plume myself like any mated dove:
They praise my rustling show, and never see
         My heart is breaking for a little love.

L.E.L., Christina Rossetti

I think in these photos, choreographed by Rossetti & taken by Parsons, you can see the allure of Jane as a model - the way she holds her hands & turns her head. I've always thought of her as more handsome than pretty - a strong beauty. https://t.co/ipmPcP15UD

Backwards up the mossy glen
Turned and trooped the goblin men,
With their shrill repeated cry,
“Come buy, come buy.”

Because the birthday of my life
Is come, my love is come to me
이제야 내 삶의 생일이 왔으니까요.
내 사랑이 나에게로 찾아왔으니까요.

Morning and evening
Maids heard the goblins cry:
'Come buy our orchard fruits,
Come buy, come buy …

Sweet to tongue and sound to eye;
Come buy, come buy.’
