" FAIR river! in thy bright, clear flow             Of crystal, wandering water,         Thou art an emblem of the glow                 Of beauty—the unhidden heart—                 The playful maziness of art             In old Alberto’s daughter;         But when within thy wave she looks—             Which glistens then, and trembles—         Why, then, the prettiest of brooks             Her worshipper resembles;         For in his heart, as in thy stream,             Her image deeply lies—         His heart which trembles at the beam             Of her soul-searching eyes. "

― Edgar Allan Poe , Poemas
