lord edward herbert of cherbury - sonnet of black beauty - richard mitchley lyrics

Loading...

black beauty, which above that common light
whose power can no colours here renew
but those which darkness can again subdue
do’st still remain unvary’d to the sight

and like an object equal to the view
art neither chang’d with day, nor hid with night
when all these colours which the world call bright
and which old poetry doth so persue

are with the night so perished and gone
that of their being there remains no mark
thou still abidest so intirely one
that we may know thy blackness is a spark
of light inaccessible, and alone
our darkness which can make us think it dark

- richard mitchley lyrics
