In Edgar Allan Poe’s poem “To Helen,” Poe reveals,
Helen, thy beauty is to me…
Thy hyacinth hair, thy classic face…
To the glory that was Greece
And the grandeur that was Rome.
Poe does not talk about beautiful love, but the beauty of love, and more importantly, how it makes him feel. Beauty can help people fall in love, and make it easy for that person to be remembered. Poe compares Helen to Greece’s glory and to Rome’s grandeur, which are physically beautiful things, and this is how he remembers her.
