Additional quotes by William Wordsworth

Until a man might travel twelve stout miles, Or reap an acre of his neighbor's corn.

A remnant of uneasy light.

The stars of midnight shall be dear
To her; and she shall lean her ear
In many a secret place
Where rivulets dance their wayward round,
And beauty born of murmuring sound
Shall pass into her face.
