Five years have past five summers with the length	A
Of five long winters and again I hear	B
These waters rolling from their mountain springs	C
With a soft inland murmur Once again	D
Do I behold these steep and lofty cliffs	E
That on a wild secluded scene impress	F
Thoughts of more deep seclusion and connect	G
The landscape with the quiet of the sky	H
The day is come when I again repose	I
Here under this dark sycamore and view	J
These plots of cottage ground these orchard tufts	K
Which at this season with their unripe fruits	L
Are clad in one green hue and lose themselves	M
'Mid groves and copses Once again I see	N
These hedge rows hardly hedge rows little lines	O
Of sportive wood run wild these pastoral farms	P
Green to the very door and wreaths of smoke	Q
Sent up in silence from among the trees	R
With some uncertain notice as might seem	S
Of vagrant dwellers in the houseless woods	T
Or of some Hermit's cave where by his fire	U
The Hermit sits alone	V
	-
These beauteous forms	W
Through a long absence have not been to me	N
As is a landscape to a blind man's eye	H
But oft in lonely rooms and 'mid the din	X
Of towns and cities I have owed to them	Y
In hours of weariness sensations sweet	Z
Felt in the blood and felt along the heart	A2
And passing even into my purer mind	B2
With tranquil restoration feelings too	J
Of unremembered pleasure such perhaps	C2
As have no slight or trivial influence	D2
On that best portion of a good man's life	E2
His little nameless unremembered acts	F2
Of kindness and of love Nor less I trust	G2
To them I may have owed another gift	H2
Of aspect more sublime that blessed mood	I2
In which the burthen of the mystery	N
In which the heavy and the weary weight	J2
Of all this unintelligible world	K2
Is lightened that serene and blessed mood	I2
In which the affections gently lead us on	L2
Until the breath of this corporeal frame	M2
And even the motion of our human blood	N2
Almost suspended we are laid asleep	O2
In body and become a living soul	P2
While with an eye made quiet by the power	U
Of harmony and the deep power of joy	Q2
We see into the life of things	C
	-
If this	R2
Be but a vain belief yet oh how oft	S2
In darkness and amid the many shapes	T2
Of joyless daylight when the fretful stir	U
Unprofitable and the fever of the world	K2
Have hung upon the beatings of my heart	A2
How oft in spirit have I turned to thee	N
O sylvan Wye thou wanderer thro' the woods	T
How often has my spirit turned to thee	N
	-
And now with gleams of half extinguished thought	U2
With many recognitions dim and faint	V2
And somewhat of a sad perplexity	N
The picture of the mind revives again	D
While here I stand not only with the sense	W2
Of present pleasure but with pleasing thoughts	X2
That in this moment there is life and food	I2
For future years And so I dare to hope	Y2
Though changed no doubt from what I was when first	Z2
I came among these hills when like a roe	A3
I bounded o'er the mountains by the sides	B3
Of the deep rivers and the lonely streams	C3
Wherever nature led more like a man	D3
Flying from something that he dreads than one	E3
Who sought the thing he loved For nature then	D
The coarser pleasures of my boyish days	F3
And their glad animal movements all gone by	H
To me was all in all I cannot paint	V2
What then I was The sounding cataract	G3
Haunted me like a passion the tall rock	H3
The mountain and the deep and gloomy wood	I3
Their colours and their forms were then to me	N
An appetite a feeling and a love	J3
That had no need of a remoter charm	K3
By thought supplied not any interest	G2
Unborrowed from the eye That time is past	L3
And all its aching joys are now no more	M3
And all its dizzy raptures Not for this	R2
Faint I nor mourn nor murmur other gifts	N3
Have followed for such loss I would believe	O3
Abundant recompense For I have learned	P3
To look on nature not as in the hour	U
Of thoughtless youth but hearing oftentimes	Q3
The still sad music of humanity	N
Nor harsh nor grating though of ample power	U
To chasten and subdue And I have felt	R3
A presence that disturbs me with the joy	Q2
Of elevated thoughts a sense sublime	S3
Of something far more deeply interfused	R3
Whose dwelling is the light of setting suns	T3
And the round ocean and the living air	U3
And the blue sky and in the mind of man	D3
A motion and a spirit that impels	T3
All thinking things all objects of all thought	R3
And rolls through all things Therefore am I still	V3
A lover of the meadows and the woods	T3
And mountains and of all that we behold	R3
From this green earth of all the mighty world	R3
Of eye and ear both what they half create	R3
And what perceive well pleased to recognise	T3
In nature and the language of the sense	T3
The anchor of my purest thoughts the nurse	T3
The guide the guardian of my heart and soul	P2
Of all my moral being	W3
	-
Nor perchance	T3
If I were not thus taught should I the more	M3
Suffer my genial spirits to decay	X3
For thou art with me here upon the banks	T3
Of this fair river thou my dearest Friend	R3
My dear dear Friend and in thy voice I catch	Y3
The language of my former heart and read	R3
My former pleasures in the shooting lights	T3
Of thy wild eyes Oh yet a little while	Z3
May I behold in thee what I was once	T3
My dear dear Sister and this prayer I make	A4
Knowing that Nature never did betray	X3
The heart that loved her 'tis her privilege	B4
Through all the years of this our life to lead	R3
From joy to joy for she can so inform	C4
The mind that is within us so impress	T3
With quietness and beauty and so feed	R3
With lofty thoughts that neither evil tongues	T3
Rash judgments nor the sneers of selfish men	D
Nor greetings where no kindness is nor all	D4
The dreary intercourse of daily life	E2
Shall e'er prevail against us or disturb	E4
Our cheerful faith that all which we behold	R3
Is full of blessings Therefore let the moon	F4
Shine on thee in thy solitary walk	G4
And let the misty mountain winds be free	N
To blow against thee and in after years	T3
When these wild ecstasies shall be matured	R3
Into a sober pleasure when thy mind	R3
Shall be a mansion for all lovely forms	T3
Thy memory be as a dwelling place	T3
For all sweet sounds and harmonies oh then	D
If solitude or fear or pain or grief	H4
Should be thy portion with what healing thoughts	T3
Of tender joy wilt thou remember me	N
And these my exhortations Nor perchance	T3
If I should be where I no more can hear	B
Thy voice nor catch from thy wild eyes these gleams	T3
Of past existence wilt thou then forget	R3
That on the banks of this delightful stream	S
We stood together and that I so long	I4
A worshipper of Nature hither came	M2
Unwearied in that service rather say	X3
With warmer love oh with far deeper zeal	J4
Of holier love Nor wilt thou then forget	R3
That after many wanderings many years	T3
Of absence these steep woods and lofty cliffs	T3
And this green pastoral landscape were to me	N
More dear both for themselves and for thy sake	A4
