And That I Walk Thus Proudly Crowned Withal

by Percy Bysshe Shelley

Percy Bysshe Shelley

And that I walk thus proudly crowned withal
Is that 'tis my distinction; if I fall,
I shall not weep out of the vital day,
To-morrow dust, nor wear a dull decay.

    A Winter Ride
    by Amy Lowell
    Who shall declare the joy of the running! Who shall tell of the pleasures of flight! Springing and spurning the tufts of wild heather, Sweeping, wide-winged, through the blue dome of light.
