William Wordsworth
Milton! thou should'st be living at this hour: England hath need of thee! . . . . . . Thy soul was like a star, and dwelt apart: So didst thou travel on life's common way In cheerful godliness.
William Wordsworth
A famous man is Robin Hood, The English ballad-singer's joy.
William Wordsworth
Like an army defeated the snow hath retreated.
William Wordsworth
Then blame not those who, by the mightiest lever Known to the moral world, Imagination.
William Wordsworth
For all things are less dreadful than they seem.

The vision and the faculty divine Yet wanting the accomplishment of verse.
William Wordsworth
