- Where the Cold Miser Spreads His Gold
- Student Commentary:
- In this image at the end of Visions of the Daughters of Albion (1959 facsimile), the torso and head of a female, likely Oothoon, is pictured in the midst of clouds and fire over a dark sea. Her blond hair flows in the wind and her arms are spread wide. Beneath her, on a single ice floe floating in the sea, are the daughters of Albion. They each wear a long colorful gown and their legs are contorted against their chests. They hold each other close and stare up at Oothoon. The poem ends, “The Daughters of Albion hear her woes & eccho back her sighs.”
