Percy Bysshe Shelley - Alas! This Is Not What I Thought Life WasPercy Bysshe Shelley - Alas! This Is Not What I Thought Life Was
Work rating: Low


Alas! this is not what I thought life was. I knew that there were crimes and evil men, Misery and hate; nor did I hope to pass Untouched by suffering, through the rugged glen. In mine own heart I saw as in a glass The hearts of others ... And when I went among my kind, with triple brass Of calm endurance my weak breast I armed, To bear scorn, fear, and hate, a woful mass!
