Ophelia
![]() | ||
Ophelia by John William Waterhouse
Beneath the oak, my eyes
married you
And now I sink in your repose.
E’er begotten, a son in my womb
And the smile of fancy,
a gentle god.
Emily Isaacson
The waters cover me as
I am changed
To liken you after a spirit,
To have clothing of decoration
And hair of comely chestnut.
At first glance, I caught you
And now, you sink
beneath the earth.
Emily Isaacson
