("Burnt Letter", a passage with a hint of passion)** *(Burning lines - as a symbol of forbidden love)* *"Farewell, letter of love! farewell: she ordered... How long I hesitated, how long I did not want My hand to give all my joys to fire!.. But enough, the hour has come. Burn, letter of love. I am ready; my soul does not heed anything. Already the greedy flame accepts your leaves... A minute!.. flared up... blaze... light smoke, Whirling, is lost with my prayer."* *(Here **fire is an accomplice of passion**, and each word literally burns. Pay attention to the verbs: "burns", "flared up", "blaze" - as if the body, and not paper, is on fire!)*, ("Storm", a hint of elemental passion)**, *(A thunderstorm as a metaphor for a stormy romance)* *"Have you seen a maiden on a cliff, In white clothing above the waves, When, raging in stormy darkness, The sea played with the shores? When a ray of lightning illuminated Her hourly with a scarlet shine And the wind beat and flew With her flying veil?"* *(Here **the maiden and the storm merge** in one impulse: her veil is like the foam of the waves, and the lightning is the reflection of her gaze. Do you feel how the wind "flies" with her clothing?)*,
