William Wordsworth - Nuns Fret Not at Their Convent`s Narrow Room
Work rating: Medium

Nuns fret not at their convent`s narrow room; 
And hermits are contented with their cells; 
And students with their pensive citadels; 
Maids at the wheel, the weaver at his loom, 
Sit blithe and happy; bees that soar for bloom, 
High as the highest Peak of Furness-fells, 
Will murmur by the hour in foxglove bells: 
In truth the prison, unto which we doom 
Ourselves, no prison is: and hence for me, 
In sundry moods, `twas pastime to be bound 
Within the Sonnet`s scanty plot of ground; 
Pleased if some Souls (for such there needs must be) 
Who have felt the weight of too much liberty, 
Should find brief solace there, as I have found.
