William Wordsworth Quotes:

Ocupation: Poet

Life: April 7, 1770 - April 23, 1850

Birthday: April 7

Death: April 23

A soul so pitiably forlorn, If such do on this earth abide, May season apathy with scorn, May turn indifference to pride; And still be not unblest- compared With him who grovels, self-debarred From all that lies within the scope Of holy faith and christian hope; Or, shipwrecked, kindles on the coast False fires, that others may be lost.

- William Wordsworth
