TENNYSONIANA.

Shakespeare.

But heaven in thy creation did decree
That in thy face sweet love should ever dwell."
Sonnet 93. 



"Three winters cold
Have from the forests shook three summers' pride,
Three beauteous springs to yellow autumn turn'd
In process of the seasons have I seen,
Three April perfumes in three hot Junes burn'd
Since first I saw you," &c.
Sonnet 104.
