MISCELLANEOUS SONNETS.

Dedication. To-

Nuns fret not at their Convent's narrow room

“ Beloved Vale!” I said, “ when I shall con

At Applethwaite, near Keswick

Pelion and Ossa flourish side by side

There is a little unpretending Rill

Her only pilot the soft breeze, the boat

The fairest, brightest, hues of ether fade

Upon the sight of a Beautiful Picture .

“Why, Minstrel, these untuneful murmurings”

Aerial Rock-whose solitary brow

The Wild Duck's Nest

Written upon a Blank Leaf in “ The Complete Angler”

To the Poet, John Dyer

On the Detraction which followed the Publication of a certain Poem

Grief, thou hast lost an ever ready friend

Composed in one of the Valleys of Westmoreland, on Easter Sunday

Decay of Piety .

Composed on the eve of the Marriage of a Friend in the Vale of Grasmere, 1812 .

From the Italian of Michael Angelo .

From the Same .

From the Same. To the Supreme Being

Surprised by joy-impatient as the Wind

Methought I saw the footsteps of a throne

Even so for me a Vision sanctified

It is a beauteous Evening, calm and free

Where lies the Land to which yon Ship must go!

With Ships the sea was sprinkled far and nigh .

The world is too much with us; late and soon

A volant Tribe of Bards on earth are found

* Weak is the will of Man, his judgment blind

To the Memory of Raisley Calvert

Scorn not the Sonnet ; Critic, you have frowned

How sweet it is, when mother Fancy rocks .

To B. R. Haydon

From the dark chambers of dejection freed .

Fair Prime of life ! were it enough to gild

I watch, and long have watched, with calm regret

I heard (alas ! ’t was only in a dream)

Not Love, not War, por the tumultuous swell

Mark the concentred hazels that enclose

Composed after a Journey across the Hambleton Hills, Yorkshire

Those words were uttered as in pensive mood

While not a leaf seems faded ; while the fields, .

How clear, how keen, how marvellously bright

Composed during a Storm .

To the Lady Mary Lowther

To Lady Beaumont

There is a pleasure in poetic pains

The Shepherd, looking eastward, softly said

When haughty expectations prostrate lie, .

Hail, Twilight, sovereign of one peaceful hour

With how sad steps, 0 Moon, thou climb'st the sky!.

Even as a dragon's eye that feels the stress .

The stars are mansions built by Nature's hand,

Desponding Father! mark this altered bough

Captivity.—Mary Queen of Scots

St. Catherine of Ledbury

Though narrow be that old Man's cares, and near,

Four fiery steeds impatient of the rein .

Brook! whose society the Poet seeks,

Composed on the Banks of a Rocky Stream

Pure element of waters! wheresoe'er

Composed upon Westminster Bridge, Sept. 3, 1802

Though the bold wings of Poesy affect .

Ye sacred Nurseries of blooming Youth !.

Shame on this faithless heart ! that could allow

Recollection of the Portrait of King Henry Eighth, Trinity Lodge, Cambridge

On the Death of His Majesty (George the Third)

Fame tells of groves-from England far away-

A Parsonage in Oxfordshire .

Composed among the Ruins of a Castle in North Wales

While Anna's peers and early playmates tread

The Infant M-M-

To -, in her seventieth year .

A Grave-stone upon the Floor in the Cloisters of Worcester Cathedral

Roman Antiquities discovered at Bishopstone, Herefordshire

Chatsworth ! thy stately mansion, and the pride

A Tradition of Oken Hill in Darley Dale, Derbyshire

To the Author's Portrait

Why art thou silent! Is thy love a plant.

To B. R. Haydon, on seeing his Picture of Napoleon Buonaparte on the Island of St. Helena

A Poer!-He hath put his heart to school

The most alluring clouds that mount the sky

On a Portrait of the Duke of Wellington upon the Field of Waterloo, by Haydon

Composed on a May Morning, 1838

Lo ! where she stands fixed in a saint-like trance

On the same Subject.

Hark ! 'tis the Thrush, undaunted, undeprest

'Tis He whose yester-evening's high disdain

Oh what a Wreck ! how changed in mien and speech !.

Intent on gathering wool from hedge and brake .

A Plea for Authors, May, 1838

Valedictory Sonnet.

To the Rev. Christopher Wordsworth, D.D., Master of Harrow School.

To the Planet Venus .

Wansfell ! this Household has a favoured lot.

While beams of orient light shoot wide and high

In my mind's eye a Temple like a cloud

On the projected Kendal and Windermere Railway

Proud were ye, Mountains, when, in times of old

At Furness Abbey

At Furness Abbey

POEMS DEDICATED TO NATIONAL INDEPENDENCE AND LIBERTY.

Composed by the Sea-side, near Calais, August, 1802

It is a reed that 's shaken by the wind,

Composed near Calais, on the Road leading to Ardres, August 7, 1802 .

I grieved for Buonaparté, with a vain

Festivals have I seen that were not names :

On the Extinction of the Venetian Republic

The King of Sweden

To Toussaint L'Ouverture .

We had a female Passenger who came

Composed in the Valley near Dover, on the day of landing

Inland, within a hollow vale, I stood;

Thought of a Briton on the Subjugation of Switzerland

Written in London, September, 1802

Milton ! thou should'st be living at this hour:

Great men have been among us ; hands that penned

It is not to be thought of that the Flood..

When I have borne in memory what has tamed

One might believe that natural miseries

There is a bondage worse, far worse, to bear

These times strike monied worldlings with dismay:

England ! the time is come when thou should'st wean

When, looking on the present state of things,

To the Men of Kent. October, 1803

What if our numbers barely could defy

Composed at the same Time and on the same Occasion .

Advance-come forth from thy Tyrolean ground .

Feelings of the Tyrolese

Alas ! what boots the long laborious quest

And is it among rude untutored Dales,

O'er the wide earth, on mountain and on plain

On the Final Submission of the Tyrolese.

Hail, Zaragoza ! If with unwet eye

Say, what is Honour ?—'Tis the finest sense

The martial courage of a day is vain

Brave Schill ! by death delivered, take thy flight

Call not the royal Swede unfortunate

Look now on that Adventurer who hath paid

Is there a Power that can sustain and cheer .

Ah ! where is Palafox? Nor tongue nor pen

In due observance of an ancient rite

Feelings of a Noble Biscayan at one of those Funerals

The Oak of Guernica

Indignation of a high-minded Spaniard

Avaunt all specious pliancy of mind

O'erweening Statesmen have full long relied

The French and the Spanish Guerillas .

Spanish Guerillas

The power of Armies is a visible thing

The French Army in Russia .
