Poetry a la Green Acres

So, that episode of Green Acres in which Eva Gabor recites Elizabeth Barrett Browning's Sonnet 43. Through a combination of detective work and stupid obsession, I found it. Here, watch.




The poem starts at 4:08, but you might as well start at the beginning and watch the whole scene (until 8:37) to get the all the payoffs.

You are amazing -- still writing this despite being a mother of six and one of them a newborn!
