  Text	from Tintern Abbey / For I have learned / To look on nature, not as in the hour / Of thoughtless youth; but hearing oftentimes / The still, sad music of humanity, / Nor harsh nor grating, though of ample power / To chasten and subdue. And I have felt / A presence that disturbs me with the joy / Of elevated thoughts; a sense of sublime / Of something far more deeply interfused, / Whose dwelling is the light of setting suns, And the round ocean and the living air, / And the blue sky, and in the mind of a man... / William Wordsworth (1770 - 1850) / Poems on the Underground / 1,000 Years of Poetry in English / 9th edition Cassell 1999 London Arts Board / The British Council / Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation / www.netpoems.com / Books and Posters are on sale at The London Transport Museum, Covent Garden 0171 379 6344 - Poster design by Tom Davidson
