Why do I hate that lone green dell?
Buried in moors and mountains wild
That is a place I had loved so well
Had I but seen it as a child
...
The earth shone round with a long lost charm
Alas I forgot I was not the same
Before a day an hour passed by
My spirit knew itself once more
I saw the gilded vapours fly
And leave me as I was before
