Love
I Wander O'er the Sandy Heath
From Works and Life, ed. Forster, vol. VIII (1876)
Love
I wander o'er the sandy heath
Where the white rush waves high,
Where adders close before me wreath
And tawny kites seal screaming by.
Alone I wander; I alone
Could love to wander there;
" But wherefore? " let my church-yard stone
Look toward Tawy and declare.
