Seite 138 - But now afflictions bow me down to earth: Nor care I that they rob me of my mirth; But oh! each visitation Suspends what nature gave me at my birth, My shaping spirit of Imagination.
Seite 84 - It may be safely affirmed that there neither is, nor can be, any essential difference between the language of prose and metrical composition.

Seite 306 - A poet is the most unpoetical of anything in existence, because he has no Identity — he is continually in for and filling some other body.
Seite 138 - My shaping spirit of Imagination. For not to think of what I needs must feel, But to be still and patient, all I can; And haply by abstruse research to steal From my own nature all the natural man This was my sole resource, my only plan: Till that which suits a part infects the whole, And now is almost grown the habit of my soul.
