English poem
Inscriptions - Supposed To Be Found In And Near A Hermit's Cell, 1818 - III
Hast thou seen, with flash incessant, Bubbles gliding under ice, Bodied forth and evanescent, No one knows by what device? Such are thoughts!—a wind-swept meadow Mimicking a troubled sea, Such is life; and death a shadow From the rock eternity!
