Abstract：Poetry, as a genre of literature, is a multidimensional language. Poetic language has an intellectual dimension, an emotional dimension, a sensuous dimension, and an imaginative dimension, which work together to pass experience to the readers. Poets always convey its musical beauty through rhyme and rhythm, endow poetry with vigorous vitality through images by the combination of Abstraction and concreteness, sense and reason, which help to create vague beauty, and enhance the creative quality and the unique connotation of the poetry by the techniques of deviation and foregrounding. This paper focuses on the three aspects to analyze the aesthetic effects of the language in Zulu Girl written by the poet of 20th century, Roy Campbell.
