FRAGMENT: REDUNDANCE, by WILLIAM WORDSWORTH Poet Analysis Poet's Biography
First Line: Not the more / failed I to lengthen out my watch
Last Line: Of movement and creation doubly felt.
First Line: Not the more / failed I to lengthen out my watch
Last Line: Of movement and creation doubly felt.
Not the more
Failed I to lengthen out my watch. I stood
Within the area of the frozen vale,
Mine eye subdued and quiet as the ear
Of one that listens, for even yet the scene,
Its fluctuating hues and surfaces,
And the decaying vestiges of forms,
Did to the dispossessing power of night
Impart a feeble visionary sense
Of movement and creation doubly felt.
