On The Projected Kendal And Windermere Railway, By: William Wordsworth

April 30, 2025 by Editors

On The Projected Kendal And Windermere Railway, By: William Wordsworth

Is then no nook of English ground secureFrom rash assault? Schemes of retirement sownIn youth, and 'mid the busy world kept pureAs when their earliest flowers of hope were blown,Must perish; how can they this blight endure?And must he too the ruthless change bemoanWho scorns a false utilitarian lure'Mid his paternal fields at random thrown?Baffle the threat, bright Scene, from … [Read more...] about On The Projected Kendal And Windermere Railway, By: William Wordsworth

On The Power Of Sound, By: William Wordsworth

I Thy functions are ethereal,As if within thee dwelt a glancing mind,Organ of vision! And a Spirit aerialInforms the cell of Hearing, dark and blind;Intricate labyrinth, more dread for thoughtTo enter than oracular cave;Strict passage, through which sighs are brought,And whispers for the heart, their slave;And shrieks, that revel in abuseOf shivering flesh; and warbled … [Read more...] about On The Power Of Sound, By: William Wordsworth

On The Final Submission Of The Tyrolese, By: William Wordsworth

It was a 'moral' end for which they fought;Else how, when mighty Thrones were put to shame,Could they, poor Shepherds, have preserved an aim,A resolution, or enlivening thought?Nor hath that moral good been 'vainly' sought;For in their magnanimity and famePowers have they left, an impulse, and a claimWhich neither can be overturned nor bought.Sleep, Warriors, sleep! among your … [Read more...] about On The Final Submission Of The Tyrolese, By: William Wordsworth

On The Extinction Of The Venetian Republic, By: William Wordsworth

On The Extinction Of The Venetian Republic, By: William Wordsworth

Once did She hold the gorgeous east in fee;And was the safeguard of the west: the worthOf Venice did not fall below her birth,Venice, the eldest Child of Liberty.She was a maiden City, bright and free;No guile seduced, no force could violate;And, when she took unto herself a Mate,She must espouse the everlasting Sea.And what if she had seen those glories fade,Those titles … [Read more...] about On The Extinction Of The Venetian Republic, By: William Wordsworth
