O Solitude!

"O Solitude! if I must with thee dwell, 
Let it not be among the jumbled heap
Of murky buildings: climb with me the steep,--
Nature's observatory--whence the dell,
In flowery slopes, its river's crystal swell, 
May seem a span; let me thy vigils keep
'Mongst boughs pavilion'd, where the deer's swift leap 
Startles the wild bee from the foxglove bell."

--John Keats
