A Slumber Did My Spirit Seal Poem by William Wordsworth

This poem is essentially an expression of the way that the poet suddenly realizes the humanity and reality of a close friend of his, a realization that is brought about by her death. This poem is only eight lines, and a result of this is an incredible density of information. Every nuance of the poem is near vital for the expression of the concerns of poet, in a number of different ways. The way that the poet thought about his friend is established in the first quatrain.

'Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.' Wordsworth realised our integration and resurrection through nature a long time before it became scientific knowledge.

A slumber did my spirit seal I had no human fears: She seemed a thing that could not feel The touch of earthly years. A touching ode to a dear friend beautifully expressed through eight sweet lines.

No motion has she now, no force; She neither hears nor sees; Rolled round in earth's diurnal course, With rocks, and stones, and trees. The great wordsworth. tony
