He speaks of the sunlight rising in the East, symbolizing Juliet’s escalating importance to him.

Desire is a consuming force that causes the body to act without consulting the mind. Anne Carson’s translation of Sappho’s fragments in, If Not Winter, creates experiences in which, eros produces a gap between the subject and the desired object.
