nder water sympathise with the seasons
of the laud, and hence with the winds which affect them.

Poem 276.

Written soon after the death, by shipwreck, of Wordsworth's brother
John. This Poem should be compared with Shelley's following it. Each is
the most complete expression of the innermost spirit of his art given by
these great Poets:--of that Idea which, as in the case of the true
Painter (to quote the words of Reynolds), "subsists only in the mind:
The sight never beheld it, nor has the hand expressed it; it is an idea
residing in the breast of the artist, which he is always labouring to
impart, and which he dies at last without imparting."

Poem 278.

Proteus represented the everlasting changes united with ever-recurrent
sameness, of the Sea.

Poem 279.

_the Royal Saint_: Henry VI.
