A Slumber Did My Spirit Seal (Poem) By William Wordsworth
Class 09 EnglishA slumber did my spirit seal—
I had no human fears.
She seemed a thing that could not feel
The touch of earthly years.
No motion has she now, no force—
She neither hears nor sees,
Rolled round in earth’s diurnal course
With rocks and stones and trees.
Glossary
diurnal: daily (“Earth’s diurnal course” is earth’s daily rotation on its axis.)
