Lord+Byron*

//She Walks in Beauty//

Helps place emphasis on the beauty of the subject of the poem. - Often compares her to a combination of darkness and lightness - emphasis on her beauty. - Compares her to nature to highlight her natural beauty and to help the readers imagine how beautiful she is.
