Incessantly to turn his ear and eye

On all things which the moving seasons brought

To feed such appetite—nor this alone

Appeased his yearning:—in the after-day

Of boyhood, many an hour in caves forlorn,

And 'mid the hollow depths of naked crags

He sate, and even in their fixed lineaments,

Or from the power of a peculiar eye,

Or by creative feeling overborne,

Or by predominance of thought oppressed,
