Poems Volume I (1815) by William Wordsworth | |||
She dwelt among the untrodden ways | |||
VIII. | |||
She dwelt among the untrodden ways | |||
Beside the springs of Dove, | |||
A Maid whom there were none to praise, | |||
And very few to love. | |||
A Violet by a mossy stone | |||
Half-hidden from the eye! | |||
—Fair as a star, when only one | |||
Is shining in the sky. | |||
She lived unknown, and few could know | |||
When Lucy ceased to be; | |||
But she is in her Grave, and, oh, | |||
The difference to me! | |||
