Thou Soul that art the Eternity of thought | B |
And giv'st to forms and images a breath | C |
And everlasting motion not in vain | D |
By day or star light thus from my first dawn | E |
Of childhood didst thou intertwine for me | F |
The passions that build up our human soul | G |
Not with the mean and vulgar works of Man | H |
But with high objects with enduring things | I |
With life and nature purifying thus | J |
The elements of feeling and of thought | B |
And sanctifying by such discipline | K |
Both pain and fear until we recognise | J |
A grandeur in the beatings of the heart | L |
Nor was this fellowship vouchsafed to me | F |
With stinted kindness In November days | J |
When vapours rolling down the valleys made | M |
A lonely scene more lonesome among woods | J |
At noon and 'mid the calm of summer nights | J |
When by the margin of the trembling lake | N |
Beneath the gloomy hills homeward I went | O |
In solitude such intercourse was mine | P |
Mine was it in the fields both day and night | Q |
And by the waters all the summer long | R |
And in the frosty season when the sun | K |
Was set and visible for many a mile | S |
The cottage windows through the twilight blazed | T |
I heeded not the summons happy time | U |
It was indeed for all of us for me | F |
It was a time of rapture Clear and loud | V |
The village clock tolled six I wheeled about | W |
Proud and exulting like an untired horse | J |
That cares not for his home All shod with steel | X |
We hissed along the polished ice in games | J |
Confederate imitative of the chase | J |
And woodland pleasures the resounding horn | Y |
The pack loud chiming and the hunted hare | Z |
So through the darkness and the cold we flew | A2 |
And not a voice was idle with the din | B2 |
Smitten the precipices rang aloud | V |
The leafless trees and every icy crag | R |
Tinkled like iron while far distant hills | J |
Into the tumult sent an alien sound | C2 |
Of melancholy not unnoticed while the stars | J |
Eastward were sparkling clear and in the west | D2 |
The orange sky of evening died away | E2 |
Not seldom from the uproar I retired | F2 |
Into a silent bay or sportively | A2 |
Glanced sideway leaving the tumultuous throng | R |
To cut across the reflex of a star | G2 |
Image that flying still before me gleamed | H2 |
Upon the glassy plain and oftentimes | J |
When we had given our bodies to the wind | I2 |
And all the shadowy banks on either side | J2 |
Came sweeping through the darkness spinning still | A2 |
The rapid line of motion then at once | J |
Have I reclining back upon my heels | J |
Stopped short yet still the solitary cliffs | J |
Wheeled by me even as if the earth had rolled | K2 |
With visible motion her diurnal round | C2 |
Behind me did they stretch in solemn train | D |
Feebler and feebler and I stood and watched | L2 |
Till all was tranquil as a summer sea | F |
