16.07.2025 16:17 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Do you think Radcliffe's writing contains 'the softer graces of a Claude' Lorrain painting, as Nathan Drake supposed in 1798?
π¨ Claude Lorrain, 'Le Berger'
And, lightened with hanging turrets fair,
That so proudly their dental coronals wear,
They blend with a holy, a warlike air;
While they guard the Martyrβs tomb beneath,
And patient warriors, laid in death?'
From Radcliffe's 'St Albans Abbey: A Metrical Tale' βͺ
'Know ye that pale and ancient choir,
Whose Norman tower lifts its pinnacled spire?
Where the long Abbey-aisle extends
And battled roof oβer roof ascends;
Cornered with buttresses, shapely and small,
That sheltered the Saint in canopied stall;

'The moon was now rising out of the sea. [Emily] watched its gradual progress, the extending line of radiance it threw upon the waters, the sparkling oars, the sail faintly silvered, and the wood-tops and the battlements of the watch-tower, at whose foot she was sitting, just tinted with the rays.'
