The Mind
Fragment: Let clumps of earth, however glorified
From Complete Poetical Works, ed. E. H. Coleridge (1912)
The Mind
Let clumps of earth, however glorified,
Roll round and round and still renew their cycle--
Man rushes like a winged Cherub through
The infinite space, and that which has been
Can therefore never be again----
