Alcaeus to Sappho Annotated

How sweet, when crimson colours dart
&nbspAcross a breast of snow,
To see that you are in the heart
&nbspThat beats and throbs below.

All Heaven is in a maiden's blush,
&nbspIn which the soul doth speak,
That it was you who sent the flush
&nbspInto the maiden's cheek.

Large steadfast eyes! eyes gently rolled
&nbspIn shades of changing blue,
How sweet are they, if they behold
&nbspNo dearer sight than you.

And, can a lip more richly glow,
&nbspOr be more fair than this?
The world will surely answer, No!
&nbspI, Sappho, answer, Yes!

Then grant one smile, tho' it should mean
&nbspA thing of doubtful birth;
That I may say these eyes have seen
&nbspThe fairest face on earth!
