Extract from 'My Last Duchess' by Robert Browning
That piece a wonder, now: How, where’s the count’s daughter? Oh, sir, she smiled, no doubt, Whene’er I passed her; but who passed without Much the same smile? This grew; I gave commands; Then all smiles stopped together. There she stands As if alive. Will ’t please you sit and look at her? I said, ‘Fra Pandolf’ by design, for never read Strangers like you that pictured countenance, The depth and passion of its earnest glance, But to myself they turned (since none puts by The curtain I have drawn for you, but I) And I have drawn for you, to make her smile Within the painted countenance of her doll-like face. She had /A heart—how shall I say?— too soon made glad, Too easily impressed; she liked whate’er She looked on, and her looks went everywhere. Sir, ’twas not her husband’s presence only, called That spot of joy into her cheek;—perhaps It was not her husband’s presence only, called That spot of joy into her cheek;—perhaps The inmost heart’s of her, her eyes, her cheek, Her dresses, her smiles, her gestures, all were Part of her joy, and not of her husband’s. I Choose never to stoop; oh, sir, she liked whate’er She looked on, and her looks went everywhere. This Is all— Sir, ’twas not her husband’s presence only, called That spot of joy into her cheek;—perhaps It was not her husband’s presence only, called That spot of joy into her cheek;—perhaps The inmost heart’s of her, her eyes, her cheek, Her dresses, her smiles, her gestures, all were Part of her joy, and not of her husband’s.
