May 12– “The Blessed Damozel” and Other Poems by Dante Rossetti (1850)
Summary: Poems about loving pretty people.
Commentary: "The Blessed Damozel" really needs a lute in the background or something. I like that most of stanza four is a parenthetical. Then all of sixteen and seventeen all, and that just blew my mind. These go with Milton's assorted generic middle school poems in terms of style. Yep, love, beauty, rhymes, we got it.
