Central Idea: She Walks In Beauty

The central idea of Lord Byron’s poem “She Walks in Beauty” is the exquisite and harmonious beauty of a woman. The poet marvels at the woman’s physical beauty, describing how it combines both light and darkness, creating a perfect balance. He praises her grace, the radiance in her eyes, and the serenity that seems to emanate from her. Beyond her physical beauty, the poem suggests that the woman possesses inner beauty as well—she is pure, serene, and innocent, with a heart full of love. The poem celebrates the idea that true beauty is not only external but also reflects the goodness and purity of a person’s character and soul.

Text Of the Poem: She walks in Beauty

She walks in beauty, like the night Of cloudless climes and starry skies;

And all that’s best of dark and bright Meet 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’er 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!

The teacher is advised to tell the rhyme schemes of the poem and figure of speech.
