Book excerpt: Excerpt from Retrospect and Other Poems Here beside my Paris fire, I sit alone and ponder All my life of long ago that lies so far asunder; "Here, how came I thence?" I say, and greater grows the wonder As I recall the farms and fields and placid hamlets yonder. ... See, the meadow-sweet is white against the watercourses, Marshy lands are kingcup-gay and bright with streams and sources, Dew-bespangled shines the hill where half-abloom the gorse is; And all the northern fallows steam beneath the ploughing horses.
