| Description |
English: The drawing illustrates Tennyson's poem 'St Agnes' Eve', first published in The Keepsake in 1836, which describes the feelings of a novice in a convent longing for union with God. On a winter night she gazes out of a window, where Deep on the convent-roof the snows Are sparkling to the moon: My breath to heaven like vapour goes: May my soul follow soon! (see source) |
