As handsome as the ever young Endymion,
the eyes was deep blue sea - one glance - you're drown,
the golden curls of his hair veiled forehead,
but in the life it should for all be paid.
The cult of Bacchus, laugh and revelry,
a life full of voluptuousness and lechery
he lead, in one thing only trust:
desire is supreme and other things are dust.
The mystery that was not yet unfold:
the sins that carved men's face, he didn’t own,
disfigured his portrait, but he stayed forever young
until with dagger he stabbed picture that showed truth at once.
He fell dead on the floor with dark resemblance of his life,
but man on portrait became instantly again juvenile.

Какое замечательное стихотворение, Кэтрин (Екатерина)!
'Picture of Dorian Gray' - потрясающее произведение! Когда я училась в университете, я читала его в подлиннике на занятиях домашнего чтения. До сих пор помню:
‘...Harry, imagine a girl, hardly seventeen years of age, with a little flower-like face, a small Greek head with plaited coils of dark-brown hair, eyes that were violet wells of passion, lips that were like the petals of rose...’.
