Best poetry by William Wordsworth for your next summer Instagram caption:
Stern Daughter of the Voice of God!
O Duty! if that name thou love
Who art a light to guide, a rod
To check the erring, and reprove; (ODE TO DUTY)
I listened, motionless and still;
And, as I mounted up the hill,
The music in my heart I bore,
Long after it was heard no more. (THE SOLITARY REAPER)
Oh there is blessing in this gentle breeze,
A visitant that while it fans my cheek
Doth seem half-conscious of the joy it brings
From the green fields, and from yon azure sky. (THE PRELUDE)
For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils. (DAFFODILS)
Turn wheresoe’er I may,
By night or day,
The things which I have seen I now can see no more. (ODE: INTIMATIONS OF IMMORTALITY)
Strange fits of passion have I known:
And I will dare to tell,
But in the Lover’s ear alone,
What once to me befell. (STRANGE FITS OF PASSION HAVE I KNOWN)
It is a beauteous evening, calm and free,
The holy time is quiet as a Nun
Breathless with adoration; the broad sun
Is sinking down in its tranquillity; (IT IS A BEAUTEOUS EVENING, CALM AND FREE)
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! (TINTERN ABBEY)
