“Desire dazzles, and the sun gives life.”
"Model's Web rants pined for love" in Daily News (29 June 2009)
“The golden sun rose from the silver wave,
And with his beams enamelled every green.”
Book I, stanza 35
Tasso's Jerusalem Delivered (1600)
“I fall back
dazzled at beholding myself all rosy red,
At having, I myself, caused the sun to rise.”
Je recule
Ébloui de me voir moi même tout vermeil
Et d’avoir, moi, le coq, fait élever le soleil.
Act II, Sc. 3
Chantecler (1910)
