Exist more simple in their elements,

And speak a plainer language.[AQ] In the woods,

A lone Enthusiast, and among the fields,

Itinerant in this labour, he had passed

The better portion of his time; and there

Spontaneously had his affections thriven

Amid the bounties of the year, the peace

And liberty of nature;[50] there he kept

In solitude and solitary thought

His mind in a just equipoise of love.
