A Slumber Did My Spirit Seal

by William Wordsworth


A slumber did my spirit seal;
   I had no human fears:
She seem’d a thing that could not feel
   The touch of earthly years.

No motion has she now, no force;
   She neither hears nor sees;
Roll’d round in earth's diurnal course
   With rocks, and stones, and trees!
