Question

In this excerpt from Lord Byron's "She Walks in Beauty," which phrases show that Byron's subject is rich in kindness and grace? More than one can be picked

[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.

Answer 1

• [She walks in beauty, like the night] Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
• [One shade the more, one ray the less, Had half impaired the nameless grace Which waves in every raven tress,]

Step-by-step explanation:

The passage shown in the question above, from the poem "She Walks in Beauty" by Lord Byron, depicts a charming, passionate and graceful girl. The speaker of the poem is totally involved with the girl's qualities and sees her as a pure and loving being.

This girl is shown to be full of goodness and grace throughout the poem, but two parts of the poem make this more evident. These parts are:

• [She walks in beauty, like the night] Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
• [One shade the more, one ray the less, Had half impaired the nameless grace Which waves in every raven tress,]

Answer 2

It depends on a person who read this, but in my opinion the most suitable phrases which show that Byron's subject is rich in kindness and grace are:
Meet in her aspect and her eyes;
Thus mellowed to that tender light which heaven gaudy day denies.
