(i) In room, darker than the night, I lay,
Thinking about thine mysterious universe
Never reaching the conclusion, I pray
I would not crouch in the lap of death I could converse.
Forests deep and wild, people merry and in glood
Rivers flowing and oceans dry, autumn leaves and roses bloom.
Lonely clouds wandering in the light of serene moon
Never reaching a reason, an insane will die soon.
(ii) The world is too much with us; late and soon,
Getting and spending, we lay waste our powers;
Little we see in Nature that is ours;
We have given our hearts away, a sordid boon! This sea
That bears her bosom to the moon;
The winds that will be howling at all hours,
And are up-gathered now like sleeping Flowers;
For this, for everything, we are out of tune.
It moves us not -- Great God! I would rather be
A pagan suckled in a creed outworn;
So might I, standing on this pleasant lea,
Have glimpses that would make me less forlorn;
Have sight proteus rising from the sea;
Or hear old triton blow his wreathed horn.
