The Birds of Wordsworth Poetically, Mythologically, and Comparatively Examined (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Birds of Wordsworth Poetically, Mythologically, and Comparatively Examined

They, and their wives and children - happier far Could they have lived as do the little birds That peck along the hedgerows.

In beast and bird a function dwells, That while we look and listen, sometimes tells Upon the heart, in more authentic guise Than oracles, or winged auguries.
