My Heart Leaps Up When I Behold


My heart leaps up when I behold
...A rainbow in the sky:
So was it when my life began;
So is it now I am a man;
So be it when I shall grow old,
...Or let me die!
The Child is father of the Man;
And I could wish my days to be
Bound each to each by natural piety.

William Wordsworth (1770-1850)
