Of calm delights, whose influences heal

The wounded spirits of her vanquished sons;

Nor ever—in those fruitful earlier days,

Wherein her manifest forms do most enrich

Our senses void of subtler cognizance—

Wandered in summer fields, climbed the free hills,

Pursued the murmuring music of her streams,

And found the borders of her sounding sea.

But thou—when, in the multitudinous lists

Of traffic, all thine own is forfeited
