A pair of closed eyes is described as "a shut bud that holds a bee," while an exposed shoulder is "smooth," "white," and "bare."
A pair of closed eyes is described as "a shut bud that holds a bee," while an exposed shoulder is "smooth," "white," and "bare." One of the characters in this work manages to start a fire in the cottage where the action takes place and calls for her counterpart before putting his arms about her waist. First published alongside another of its creator's poems, "Johannes Agricola in Meditation," in 1835, it opens, "The Rain set early in tonight," and ends with a suddenly still "yellow-haired" woman not stirring her head from the title character's shoulder. For ten points, identify this dramatic monologue about a man who strangles his paramour with her blond hair in order to be with her forever, a work by Robert Browning.
