A sense sublimeOf something far more deeply interfused,Whose dwelling is the light of setting suns,And the round ocean, and the living air,And the blue sky, and in the mind of man;A motion and a spirit that impelsAll thinking things, all objects of all thought,And rolls through all things.
In all things, in all natures, in the starsOf azure heaven, the unenduring clouds,In flower and tree, in every pebbly stoneThat paves the brooks, the stationary rocks,The moving waters and the invisible air.Wordsworth.
