“ Will no one tell me what she sings?
Perfiaps the plaintive numbers flow
For old, unhappy, far-off things,
And battles long ago;
Or is it some more humble lay,
Familiar matter of today?
Some natural sorrow, loss, or pain,
Tliat has been, and may be again?”
(From William Wordsworth's“ The Solitary Reaper” )
