Additional quotes by William Wordsworth

I had melancholy thoughts...
a strangeness in my mind,
A feeling that I was not for that hour,
Nor for that place.

A deep distress hath humanised my soul.

She was a Phantom of delight When first she gleamed upon my sight; A lovely Apparition, sent To be a moment's ornament; Her eyes as stars of twilight fair, Like twilights too her dusky hair, But all things else about her drawn From May-time and the cheerful dawn.

And homeless near a thousand homes I stood, And near a thousand tables pined and wanted food. - William Wordsworth
