The Lady of Shalott (on boat) （船と布） [R] [com]

She left the web, she left the loom,
She made three paces through the room,
She saw the helmet and the plume,
	She look'd down to Camelot.
Out flew the web and floated wide;
The mirror crack'd from side to side;
"The curse is come upon me," cried
	The Lady of Shalott.

(Alfred, Lord Tennyson 1809-92 )

La Belle Dame Sans Merci [R] [com]

...
I met a lady in the meads,
Full beautiful-a faery's child,
Her hair was long, her foot was light,
And her eyes were wild.


I made a garland for her head,
And bracelets too, and fragant zone,
She look'd at me as she did love,
And made sweet moan.


I set her on my pacing steed,
And nothing else saw all day long,
For sidelong would she bed, and sing
A faery's song.


She found me foots or relish sweet,
And honey wild, and manna dew,
And sure in language strange she said-
"I love thee true!"
...

- La Belle Dame Sans Merci (John Keats 1795-1821)

Ophelia （青） [com]

Psyche Entering Cupid's Garden [IG]

   A rosy sanctuary will I dress
With the wreathed trelis of a working brain,
   With buds, and bells, and stars without a name,
With all the gardener Fancy e'er could feign,
   Who, breeding flowers, will never breed the same;
And there sha be for thee all soft delight
   Ｔhat shadowy thought can win,
A bright torch, and a casement ope at night,
   To let the warm Love in!

- Ode to Psyche (John Keats 1795-1821)

Mariamne Leaving the Judgement Seat of Herod （立ち姿、獅子） [R]

She's gone, who shared my diadem;
   She sunk, with her my joys entombing;
I swept that flower from Judah's stem,
   Whose leaves for me aone were blooming;
And mine's the guit, and mine the hell,
   This bosom's desoation dooming;
And I have earn'd those tortures well,
   which unconsumed are sti consuming!

- Herod's Lament for Mariamne (Load Byron 178801824)
