The bride of quietness

Thou still unravish'd bride of quietness,

Thou foster-child of silence and slow time,




When old age shall this generation waste,

Thou shalt remain, in midst of other woe

Than ours, a friend to man, to whom thou say'st,

"Beauty is truth, truth beauty,—that is all

Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know."

Wow that is a lovely coin. You quoted my favorite poem by Keats.

 

Very nice Larissa scaborough, here's mine:

 

@scarborough, your coin strikes me as being of the finest style for these, carved by a highly skilled person!
Congratulations!

 

I agree. That is a fine specimen. The type with horse 'ready to roll' also comes in smaller silver and bronze versions.
