Poem by Elinor Wylie

Venetian Interior

Allegra, rising from her canopied dreams, 
Slides both white feet across the slanted beams 
Which lace the peacock jalousies: behold 
An idol of fine clay, with feet of gold

1. Upon Your Heart, Which Is.the Heart of All
2. Silver Filigree
3. Death and the Maiden
4. One Person
5. Poor Earth
