Nah, I took the liberty of that embellishment.

Well, I'm gonna email it to her. I didn't find it in my book though. :-(

Good morning...

I got intrigued and did a Google search... the poem is taken from The Tempest, Act III, Scene 1; it's spoken by Ferdinand to Miranda. Incidentally, a couple of definitions for the name "Miranda" claim that Shakespeare invented the name for this play; it's taken from the Latin word "miror" meaning, "to admire"; "Miranda" then meaning "something admirable" or "worthy of admiration". The phrase "Admirable Miranda" then becomes a play on words!
