It was first published, in 1827, among the Poems of Sentiment and Reflection, and consisted of eleven lines. In ed. 1836-7 1. 2 and 11. 14-16 were added; 11. 4, 5 were expanded from the original-'The Star that from the zenith darts its beams,' and the consequent changes from singular to plural were made in the following lines. The poem was moved to the front of the Poems of Sentiment and Reflection, on the verso of the title-page of that section. It was transferred to its present position in the one-volume ed. of 1845, Wordsworth writing to Moxon, '1 mean it to serve as a sort of Preface' (Knight's Life of Wordsworth, iii. (vol. ix. of Edinburgh ed.), p. 414). |
