Classic Poem

53. On Claudia Rufina

Though from the painted Britons Claudia came,
Her noble soul befits the Roman race,
Her kinship dames of Italy might claim,
Greeks laud her beauty; and by heaven's grace
Offspring she hath, so ere her lovely face
Hath lost its youth, they too shall wed, and she
Loving her lord, in him shall ever place
Her trust, rejoicing in her children three.EnglishMartiallove poemlove poemslove poems for herlove poetrypoems about loveromantic poemsShort Poems
