Popular passages

If this Be but a vain belief, yet, oh! how oft— In darkness and amid the many shapes Of joyless daylight; when the fretful stir Unprofitable, and the fever of the world, Have hung upon the beatings of my heart— How oft, in spirit, have I turned to thee, O sylvan Wye! thou wanderer thro' the woods, How often has my spirit turned to thee!
Page 334 - Once again Do I behold these steep and lofty cliffs, That on a wild secluded scene impress Thoughts of more deep seclusion ; and connect The landscape with the quiet of the sky.

Page 200 - Mongst Hatterill's lofty hills, that with the clouds are crowned, The valley Ewias lies, immured so deep and round, As they below, that see the mountains rise so high, Might think the straggling herds were grazing in the sky: Which in it such a shape of solitude doth bear, As Nature at the first appointed it for prayer...
