Poem by Charlotte Brönte:I’ve been wandering in the greenwoods,And ‘mid flowery, smiling plains;I’ve been listening to the dark floods,To the thrush’s thrilling strains.I have gathered the pale primrose,And the purple violet sweet;I’ve been where the asphodel grows,And where lives the red deer fleet.I’ve been to the distant mountain,To the silver singing rill,By the crystal murmuring fountain,And the shady, verdant hill.I’ve been where the poplar is springingFrom the fair enamelled ground,Where the nightingale is singingWith a solemn, plaintive sound. -- source link
