Analysis of The Poetry Of Coleridge

George Meredith 1828 (Portsmouth, Hampshire) – 1909 (Box Hill, Surrey)



A brook glancing under green leaves, self-delighting, exulting,
And full of a gurgling melody ever renewed -
Renewed thro' all changes of Heaven, unceasing in sunlight,
Unceasing in moonlight, but hushed in the beams of the holier orb.
