“Beautiful Life”
~ Ace of Base
“Nor sedulous as I have been to trace/How nature by extrinsic passion first/Peopled the mind with forms sublime or fair,/And made me love them, may I here omit/How other pleasures have been mine, and joys/Of subtler origin; how I have felt,/Not seldom even in that tempestuous time,/Those hallowed and pure motions of the sense/Which seem, in their simplicity, to own/An intellectual charm; that calm delight/Which, if I err not, surely must belong/To those first-born affinities that fit/Our new existence to existing things,/And, in our domain of being, constitute/The bond of union between life and joy.”
William Wordsworth
“The Prelude”
