Fragment: A Wanderer

by Percy Bysshe Shelley

Percy Bysshe Shelley

He wanders, like a day-appearing dream,
Through the dim wildernesses of the mind;
Through desert woods and tracts, which seem
Like ocean, homeless, boundless, unconfined.

    Hic Jacet
    by William Carlos Williams
    The coroner's merry little children Have such twinkling brown eyes. Their father is not of gay men And their mother jocular in no wise, Yet the coroner's merry little children Laugh so easily.
