Sonnet on
Coleridge
SONNET IN REMINISCENCE OF THE POET COLERIDGE. COLERIDGE, of Boyhood in the early dawn Oppress'd I felt not, nor of hope forlorn, Grasping your hand. You spake, as though our School Were of a sep'rate world the vestibule; And we its inhabitants. - In cloister'd walk, While such of opening scenes your cherish'd talk, I listen'd breathless; - and I saw you prove Your boded triumphs in the College grove. - Thence, by a sudden plunge, amid their strife You sprang into the waves of this world's life; Nor paused. - Far, far away 'twas mine to hear Fame of your struggles, and th' applauding cheer. - At last of wound'rous Boy, of Bard, of Sage Sank beneath Friendship's roof the shelter'd Age. C. V. LE GRICE. Trereise, Cornwall, June 16th, 1852. |
