The Friends of Coleridge - Samuel Taylor Coleridge

Wales and the Bristol Channel seen from Dowsborough at the top of the Quantocks.

Now, my friends emerge
Beneath the wide wide Heaven--and view again
The many-steepled track magnificent
Of hilly fields and meadows, and the sea,
With some fair bark, perhaps, whose Sails light up
The slip of smooth clear blue betwixt two isles
Of purple shadow!

From 'This Lime-Tree Bower My Prison'
S T Coleridge, 1797
