Explore "Old St. David's at Radnor" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
What an image of peace and rest / Is this little church among its graves! / All is so quiet; the troubled breast, / The wounded spirit, the heart oppressed, / Here may find the repose it craves.
See, how the ivy climbs and expands / Over this humble hermitage, / And seems to caress with its little hands / The rough, gray stones, as a child that stands / Caressing the wrinkled cheeks of age!
