 I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the shore. . . .
I hear it in the deep heart's core.

 I hear the wind a blow
I hear the grass a grow,
And all that I know, I know.
But I will not speak, I will run away.

 I heard the old, old, men say "all that's beautiful drifts away, like the waters

 I sigh that kiss you,
For I must own
That I shall miss you
When you have grown.

 I think a man and a woman should choose each other for life, for the simple reason that a long life with all its accidents is barely enough for a man and a woman to understand each other; and in this case to understand is to love.

 I think it better that at times like these
We poets keep our mouths shut, for in truth
We have no gift to set a statesman right;
He's had enough of meddling who can please
A young girl in the indolence of her youth
Or an old man upon a winter's night.

 I think it better that in times like these a poet's mouth be silent, for in truth we have no gift to set a statesman right

 I think you can leave the arts, superior or inferior, to the conscience of mankind.

 I wonder anybody does anything at Oxford but dream and remember, the place is so beautiful. One almost expects the people to sing instead of speaking. It is all . . . like an opera.

 I would be -- for no knowledge is worth a straw --
Ignorant and wanton as the dawn.

 I would mould a world of fire and dew.

 I'd as soon listen to dried peas in a bladder, as listen to your thoughts.

 If I make the lashes dark
And the eyes more bright
And the lips more scarlet,
Or ask if all be right
From mirror after mirror,
No vanity's displayed:
I'm looking for the face I had
Before the world was made.

 If suffering brings wisdom, I would wish to be less wise.

 If you believe in God,
You are my soul's one friend.
