My eyes are dim with childish tears,
My heart is idly stirred,
For the same sound is in my ears
Which in those days I heard.
William Wordsworth, The Fountain.
Sound
Their rising all at once was as the sound
Of thunder heard remote.

What's the business,
That such a hideous trumpet calls to parley
The sleepers of the house? Speak, speak!
