Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Ode on the Departing Year
Long had I listen'd, free from mortal fear, With inward stillness and a bowed mind When 10! Far onwards waving on the I saw the skirts of the departing year! Starting from my iilent sadness Then with no unholy madness, Ere yet the entered cloud forbade my sight.
