Long has the dew been dried on tree and lawn:O'er man and beast a not unwelcome boonIs shed, the languor of approaching noon;To shady rest withdrawing or withdrawnMute are all creatures, as this couchant fawn,Save insect-swarms that hum in air afloat,Save that the Cock is crowing, a shrill note,Startling and shrill as that which roused the dawn.Heard in that hour, or when, as … [Read more...] about Memorials Of A Tour In Italy, 1837 – VIII. – Near Rome, In Sight Of St. Peter’s, By: William Wordsworth
