For #WorldPoetryDay some lines from Coleridge’s ‘Ancient Mariner’: Her lips were red, her looks were free, Her locks were yellow as gold: Her skin was as white as leprosy, The Night-mare LIFE-IN-DEATH was she, Who thicks man's blood with cold. #GothicSpring 🖼 G. Doré

Fun fact: Coleridge’s poem is quoted in two of Gothic literature’s most iconic texts: Frankenstein & Dracula.

@madeline_cct My favourite lines are: "water, water, everywhere, and all the boards did shrink, Water, water, everywhere, Nor any drop to drink"🤗.
