Whom should I choose for my Judge? (fragment)
July 6, 2023To William Wordsworth
July 6, 2023When Hope but made Tranquillity be felt (fragment)
When Hope but made Tranquillity be felt–
A Flight of Hopes for ever on the wing
But made Tranquillity a conscious Thing–
And wheeling round and round in sportive coil
Fann’d the calm air upon the brow of Toil–
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
