"there is a pleasure in the pathless woods, there is a rapture on the lonely shore, there is society,..."

“there is a pleasure in the pathless woods,
there is a rapture on the lonely shore,
there is society, where none intrudes,
by the deep sea, and music in its roar:
i love not man the less, but nature more,
from these our interviews, in which i steal
from all i may be, or have been before,
to mingle with the universe, and feel
what i can ne’er express, yet cannot all conceal.”
