OF tOUR, July 13, 1798.
Five years h
Of ?ve long ers! and again I hear
ters, rolling from tain-springs
it inland murmur.[4]--Once again
Do I beeep and lofty cliffs,
hich on a wild secluded scene impress
ts of more deep seclusion; and connect
t of the sky.
the day is come when I again repose
his dark sycamore, and view
ts of cottage-ground, tufts,
ts,
Among themselves,
Nor, urb
the wild green landscape. Once again I see
ttle lines
Of sportive oral farms
Green to thes of smoke
Sent up, in silence, from among trees,
itain notice, as might seem,
Of vagrant dhe houseless woods,
Or of some s cave, where by his ?re
t sits alone.
t long,
ty been to me,
As is a landscape to a blind mans eye:
But oft, in lonely rooms, and mid the din
Of toies, I o them,
In ions s,
Felt in t along t,
And passing even into my purer mind
itranquil restoration:--feelings too
Of unremembered pleasure; such, perhaps,
As may rivial in?uence
On t best portion of a good mans life;
tle, nameless, unremembered acts
Of kindness and of love. Nor less, I trust,
to t,
Of aspect more sublime; t blessed mood,
In wery,
In w
Of all telligible world
