Thou sacred light, that right from wrong discerns; Thou safeguard of the soul, thou heaven on earth; Thou undervaluer of the world's concerns, Thou disregarder of its joys and mirth; Thou only home the houseless wanderers have; Thou prop by which the pilgrim's woes are borne; Thou solace of the lonely hermit's cave, That beds him down to rest on fate's sharp thorn; Thou only hope to sorrow's bosom given; Thou voice of mercy when the weary call; Thou faith extending to thy home in heaven; Thou peace, thou rest, thou comfort, all in all: O sovereign good! on thee all hopes depend, Till thy grand source unfolds its realizing end. ANXIETY. One, o'er heaths wandering in a pitch dark night, Making to sounds that hope some village near; Hermit, retreating to a chinky light, Long lost in winding cavern dark and drear; A slave, long banish'd from his country dear, By freedom left to seek his native plains; A soldier, absent many a long, long year, In sight of home ere he that comfort gains; A thirsty labouring wight, that wistful strains O'er the steep hanging bank to reach the stream; A hope, delay so lingeringly detains, We still on point of its disclosure seem: These pictures weakly 'semble to the eye A faint existence of Anxiety. EXPECTATION. When Expectation in the bosom heaves, What longing, anxious views disturb the mind; What fears, what hopes, distrust and then believe That something which the heart expects to find! How the poor prisoner, ere he's doom'd to die, Within his gloomy cell of dreary woe, How does he watch, with Expectation's eye, The lingering, long suspense of fate to know. Alas, poor soul! though different bonds confine; The walls his prison is, the world is mine: So do I turn my weary eyes above, So do I look...

Book excerpt: "In this series, a contemporary poet selects and introduces a poet of the past. By their choice of poems and by the personal and critical reactions they express in their prefaces, the editors offer insights into their own work as well as providing an accessible and passionate introduction to the most important poets in our literature. The birds are gone to bed; the cows are still, And sheep lie panting on each old mole hill, And underneath the willow's grey-green bough - Like toil a resting - lies the fallow plough - "Hares at Play"."--Publisher description.
Download or read book A Century of Sonnets written by Paula R. Feldman and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2002-12-20 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Century of Sonnets is a striking reminder that some of the best known and most well-respected poems of the Romantic era were sonnets. It presents the broad and rich context of such favorites as Percy Bysshe Shelley's "Ozymanidas," John Keats's "On First Looking Into Chapman's Homer," and William Wordsworth's "Composed Upon Westminster Bridge" by tracing the sonnet revival in England from its beginning in the hands of Thomas Edwards and Charlotte Smith to its culmination in the poetry of Elizabeth Barrett Browning and Dante Gabriel Rossetti. Expertly edited by Paula R. Feldman and Daniel Robinson, this volume is the first in modern times to collect the sonnets of the Romantic period--many never before published in the twentieth century--and contains nearly five hundred examples composed between 1750 and 1850 by 81 poets, nearly half of them women. A Century of Sonnets includes in their entirety such important but difficult to find sonnet sequences as William Wordsworth's The River Duddon, Mary Robinson's Sappho and Phaon, and Robert Southey's Poems on the Slave Trade, along with Browning's enduring classic, Sonnets from the Portuguese. The poems collected here express the full sweep of human emotion and explore a wide range of themes, including love, grief, politics, friendship, nature, art, and the enigmatic character of poetry itself. Indeed, for many poets the sonnet form elicited their strongest work. A Century of Sonnets shows us that far from disappearing with Shakespeare and the English Renaissance, the sonnet underwent a remarkable rebirth in the Romantic period, giving us a rich body of work that continues to influence poets even today.

Download or read book John Clare and the Place of Poetry written by Mina Gorji and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditional accounts of Romantic poetry have depicted John Clare as a peripheral figure, an original genius whose talents removed him from the mainstream. This volume helps to show that far from being brilliant yet isolated, Clare was deeply involved in the rich cultural life of both his village and the larger metropolis. Offering an account of Clare’s poems as they relate to the literary culture and burgeoning literary history of his day, Mina Gorji defines the context in which Clare’s work can best be understood: in relation to eighteenth-century traditions as they persisted and developed in the Romantic period.
Download or read book Clare s Lyric written by Stephanie Kuduk Weiner and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2014-04-10 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book considers the lyric poems written by John Clare and three twentieth-century poets—Arthur Symons, Edmund Blunden, and John Ashbery—who turned to him at pivotal moments in their own development. These writers crafted a distinctive mode of lyric, 'Clare's lyric', that emphatically grounds its truth claims in mimetic accuracy. For these writers, accurate representation involves not only words that name objects, describe scenes, and create images pointing to a shared reality but also patterns of sound, the syntactic organization of lines, and the shapes of whole poems and collections of poems. Their works masterfully investigate how poetic language and form can refer to the world, word by word, line by line, and poem by poem. Written in a lively and accessible style, Clare's Lyric sheds light on a richly diverse body of poems and on enduring questions about how literature represents reality. Weiner's attentive close readings bring the writings of Clare, Symons, Blunden, and Ashbery to life by revealing precisely how they captured a vital, arresting, and complex world in their poems. Their unique approach to lyric is traced from Clare's poems about birdsong, his sonnets, and his later poems of loss and absence to Symons's efforts to make 'amends to nature' Blunden's vivid depictions of a European and English countryside scarred by the First World War, and Ashbery's unbounded and bountiful landscapes. This inventive study refines our understanding of the aesthetic of Romanticism, the genre of lyric, and the practice of literary representation, and it makes a compelling case for the ongoing importance of poems about nature and social life.
