Oh, just lovely! I'm running away with #12.

[lotesse]

Isn't that just the most perfect font ever? I'm in love with it. Glad you like the icon.

Number seven rocks my world, oh my gawd. XD

Glad you like :)

Those are so awesome. I particularly love #4. I blame you for causing me to leaf through "La Belle Dame sans Merci" and try to match other lines with images.

It is hauntingly applicable, isn't it? Yay Keats.

Took #13 and #4. I think I am going to have to find my Edna St. Vincent Millay book now =) Beautiful icons.

These are lovely. Excellent text choices. I'm snagging #20 and will credit.

These are so awesome! Squee, Keats. Is number three, by any chance, a poem about Tristan and Iseult? I just read the Joseph Bédier retelling yesterday and the "philter and spell" thing caught my attention.

[lotesse]

no, although that was the reference I was going for. the text is actually quoted from an anti-witchcraft poem--I couldn't find a nice poetic Tristan soundbite that was suitable.

Lovely! Taking 3, 4, 5, 6, 14, 16, 18, 19 and 20 :)
