John Bartlett (1820–1905). Familiar Quotations, 10th ed. 1919.

4919 William Wordsworth 1770-1850 John Bartlett

 
NUMBER:4919
AUTHOR:William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
QUOTATION:A sense sublime
Of 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 impels
All thinking things, all objects of all thought,
And rolls through all things.
ATTRIBUTION:Lines completed a few miles above Tintern Abbey.
WORKS:William Wordsworth Collection.
