"On Man, on Nature, and on Human Life,
Musing in solitude, I oft perceive
Fair trains of imagery before me rise,
Accompanied by feelings of delight
Pure, or with no unpleasing sadness mixed;
And I am conscious of affecting thoughts
And dear remembrances, whose presence soothes
Or elevates the Mind, intent to weigh
The good and evil of our mortal state."
The Recluse. William Wordsworth (1770 - 1850) Britain's Poet Laureate 1843 - 1850. (Photo: taken Nov. 1, 2010 lw)
