Fragment: 'Methought I Was A Billow In The Crowd'

________________________________________________
Title:     Fragment: 'Methought I Was A Billow In The Crowd'
Author: Percy Bysshe Shelley [More Titles by Shelley]

Methought I was a billow in the crowd
Of common men, that stream without a shore,
That ocean which at once is deaf and loud;
That I, a man, stood amid many more
By a wayside..., which the aspect bore
Of some imperial metropolis,
Where mighty shapes--pyramid, dome, and tower--
Gleamed like a pile of crags--





[The end]
