That kill the bloom before its time, And blanch, without the owner's crime, The most resplendent hair.
William WordsworthEvery great and original writer, in proportion as he is great and original, must himself create the taste by which he is to be relished.
William WordsworthAh, what a warning for a thoughtless man, Could field or grove, could any spot of earth, Show to his eye an image of the pangs Which it hath witnessed,-render back an echo Of the sad steps by which it hath been trod!
William Wordsworth
