William Wordsworth Quote

Often have I sighed to measure
By myself a lonely pleasure,—
Sighed to think I read a book,
Only read, perhaps, by me.


To the Small Celandine - Bartlett's Familiar Quotations, 10th ed. (1919)


Often have I sighed to measure By myself a lonely pleasure,— Sighed to think I read a book, Only read, perhaps, by me.
