Blackwood's Magazine, January 1819.


COMPOSED DURING A STORM[357]

Composed 1819.—Published 1819

[Written in Rydal Woods, by the side of a torrent.—I. F.]

One of the "Miscellaneous Sonnets."—Ed.

One who was suffering tumult in his soul

Yet failed to seek the sure relief of prayer,

Went forth—his course surrendering to the care
