Of Love and Hope

Yesterday I got a really nice surprise from C . In the mail was the Audio CD “Beauty and the Beast : Of Love and Hope” Is C. a darling or not? Love you my honeybee!
Anyway this is a really gorgeous album, which covers the award winning score from the TV series. Plus you get Ron Perlman reading poetry in "Vincent's" voice. Byron's 'She walks in beauty like the night' will never sound sexier.
Still waiting for the series to appear on region 2 version though….

SHE WALKS IN BEAUTY by LORD BYRON

She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies,
And all that’s best of dark and bright
Meets in her aspect and her eyes,
Thus mellowed to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.

One shade the more, one ray the less
Had half impaired the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven tress
Or softly lightens o’er her face,
Where thoughts serenely sweet express
How pure, how dear their dwelling-place.

And on that cheek and o’ver that brow
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
The smiles that win, the tints that glow,
But tell of days in goodness spent,
A mind at peace with all below,
A heart whose love is innocent.
