             The English poet George Gordon Noel Byron, 6th Baron Byron (1788-1824), was one of the most importatnt figures of the romantic movement.

             The poem he wrote "She Walks in Beauty" is one of Byron's most famous poem. It is obvius that this poem is somewhat of a love poem , expressing how beautiful this woman is that lord byron is looking at. She combines opposites in perfect proportions in her personality. Whether it is a true declaration of love or a statement of admiration is left to you to yall to think about, since it's known that this poem was about his cousin, Mrs. Wilmot, whom he met at a party in a mourning dress of spangled black. He describes a night with bright stars and compass this woman to that night. She brings together these opposites in her beauty and creates a "tender light".
