Analysis of Unrisen Splendour Of The Brightest Sun
Percy Bysshe Shelley 1792 (Horsham) – 1822 (Lerici)
Unrisen splendour of the brightest sun,
To rise upon our darkness, if the star
Now beckoning thee out of thy misty throne
Could thaw the clouds which wage an obscure war
With thy young brightness!
