The Return

CAN this be her?   Her dark eyes show
   Two planets in the midnight heaven;
Her cheeks the blood-dyed rose—her brow
   The snow upon the mountains driven;
 
Her tongue’s a silver bell to hear,
   Ah, death when certain words are spoken!—
Can this be her?   And comes the dear
   To break again the heart she’s broken?
