[275] 1845.
A thankful heart all lawless wishes quelled,
To joy, to praise, to love alike compelled,
Whatever boon be granted or withheld.

The following variation of the two last stanzas is from a MS. copy by Wordsworth.

Among the forms and powers of earth and sky,
Converse with nature in pure sympathy.
