经典英文短诗精选：The Poet　　What instinct forces man to journey on,
　　Urged by a longing blind but dominant!
　　Nothing he sees can hold him, nothing daunt
　　His never failing eagerness. The sun
　　Setting in splendour every night has won
　　His vassalage; those towers flamboyant
+ T0 A4 ?/ k3 P6 E+ R/ U- g5 i　　Of airy cloudland palaces now haunt
) U8 d5 b: m1 X. `: o　　His daylight wanderings. Forever done
9 z4 K' b: q4 |/ c* \　　With simple joys and quiet happiness
　　He guards the vision of the sunset sky;
; @2 j4 o& ~. b9 E; Y3 ^　　Though faint with weariness he must possess
2 ]! K2 n" ^5 i　　Some fragment of the sunset's majesty;
　　He spurns life's human friendships to profess
　　Life's loneliness of dreaming ecstasy.
