Its home
The voiceless lightning in these solitudes
Keeps innocently, and like vapor broods
Over the snow.
(Mont Blanc)

The mystery and the majesty of Earth,
The joy, the exultation?

I 'll tell thee truth: I loved another.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
Yet if we could scorn
Hate, and pride, and fear;
If we were things born
Not to shed a tear,
I know not how thy joy we ever should come near.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
I speak in grief,
Not exultation, for I hate no more,
As then ere misery made me wise.
Percy Bysshe Shelley
