Our birth is but q sleep, and forgetting
The soul that rises with us, our hfe's star,
Hath had elsewhere its setting
And cometh from afar;
Not In entire forgeefalnesa,
And not in utter nakodneua.
But trailing clouds OF glory do We come
From God, vino ia our homo;
Heaven lies about rs In our infancyt
Shades Of the prison-hCuso begin TO close
But he behoIds the Light, and whence is flows,
He sees Il ia his Joy;
The youth, who daily farther from the ssst
Must travel, still iH Nature priest
And by the vision splendid
Is on his way attended;
At length the man perceives it de away
And fade into the light Of common day.
