there is a quiet spirit in these woods,
that dwells where'er the gentle south-wind blows;
where, underneath the white-thorn, in the glade,
the wild flowers bloom, or, kissing the soft air,
the leaves above their sunny palms outspread.

ah! what is not a dream by day
to him whose eyes are cast
on things around him with a ray
turned back upon the past?

3. "a shadow" by henry wadsworth longfellow

i said unto myself, if i were dead,
what would befall these children? what would be
their fate, who now are looking up to me
for and furtherance? their lives, i said,
