The Rainbow


William Wordsworth. 1770–1850
 
532. The Rainbow
 
MY heart leaps up when I behold
A rainbow in the sky:
So was it when my life began;
So is it now I am a man;
So be it when I shall grow old,         5
      Or let me die!
The Child is father of the Man;
I could wish my days to be
Bound each to each by natural piety.
