    “My heart leaps up when I behold
    A rainbow in the sky:
    So was it when my life began;
    So is it now I am a man;
    So be it when I shall grow old,
    Or let me die!
    The Child is father of the Man;
    And I could wish my days to be
    Bound each to each by natural piety.”
    —William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    A dedicated beggar to the air,
    With his disease of all-shunned poverty,
    Walks, like contempt, alone.”
