In a poem initially excluded from this collection, the speaker seeks “no copy now of life’s first half,” and tells an “angel” to “write me new my future’s epigraph.” This collection’s title references a poem in which the refrain “sweetest eyes were ever seen” is quoted by Catarina. In this collection, a man who “fixed a day in spring to come” is recounted by a speaker whose letters are “dead paper, mute and white.” A speaker in this collection implores the (*) “world’s sharpness” to, like a “clasping knife,” do no harm. The “mystic Shape” that grabs a speaker in this collection is revealed to be “not Death, but Love.” The speaker of this collection “counts[s] the ways” to answer her rhetorical question “How do I love thee?” For 10 points, name this collection of love poetry by Elizabeth Barrett Browning. ■END■
