Poet Analysis

First Line: MY SPIRIT LIKE A CHARMED BARK DOTH SWIM
Last Line: ITS WAY ADOWN SOME MANY-WINDING RIVER.
Subject(s): SINGING & SINGERS;

MY spirit like a charmed bark doth swim
Upon the liquid waves of thy sweet singing
Far away into the regions dim
Of rapture -- as a boat, with swift sails winging
Its way adown some many-winding river.
