Samuel Taylor Coleridge (Сэмюэл Тэйлор Кольридж)

What is Life?

Resembles Life what once was held of Light,
Too ample in itself for human sight?
An absolute Self--an element ungrounded--
All, that we see, all colours of all shade
[Image]By encroach of darkness made?--
Is very life by consciousness unbounded?
And all the thoughts, pains, joys of mortal breath,
A war-embrace of wrestling Life and Death?

2. Recollections of Love
3. On The Christening Of A Friend's Child
4. Time, Real and Imaginary
5. To the River Otter

John Clare (Джон Клэр) What is Life? ("And what is Life? An hour-glass on the run")
