Samuel Taylor Coleridge – The Complete Poems
From The Day-Dream
Across my chest there lay a weight, so warm
As if some bird had taken shelter there;
And lo! I seemed to see a woman's form -
Thine Sara, thine? O joy, if thine it were!
I gazed with stifled breath and feared to stir it
No deeper trance e'er wrapt a yearning spirit
