To Helen Helen, thy beauty is to me Like those Nicéan barks of yore, That gently o’er a perfumed sea, The weary, way-worn wanderer bore To his own native shore. On desperate seas long wont to roam, Thy hyacinth hair, thy classic face, Thy Naiad* airs have brought me home To the glory that was Greece, And the grandeur that was Rome. Lo! In yon brilliant window-niche How statue-like I see thee stand, The agate lamp within thy hand! Ah, Psyche**, from the regions which Are Holy Land. --Edgar Allan Poe
