William Wordsworth - Louisa: After Accompanying Her On A Mountain Excursion
Work rating: Low

I MET Louisa in the shade,
And, having seen that lovely Maid,
Why should I fear to say
That, nymph-like, she is fleet and strong,
And down the rocks can leap along
Like rivulets in May?

She loves her fire, her cottage-home;
Yet o`er the moorland will she roam
In weather rough and bleak;
And, when against the wind she strains,                     
Oh! might I kiss the mountain rains
That sparkle on her cheek.

Take all that`s mine "beneath the moon,"
If I with her but half a noon
May sit beneath the walls
Of some old cave, or mossy nook,
When up she winds along the brook
To hunt the waterfalls.
