A Gleam of Sunshine

Explore "A Gleam of Sunshine" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.

This is the place. Stand still, my steed, / Let me review the scene, / And summon from the shadowy Past / The forms that once have been.

The Past and Present here unite / Beneath Time's flowing tide, / Like footprints hidden by a brook, / But seen on either side.
