John Bartlett (1820–1905).  Familiar Quotations, 10th ed.  1919.
 
 
NUMBER:2770
AUTHOR:John Milton (1608–1674)
QUOTATION:I walk unseen
On the dry smooth-shaven green,
To behold the wandering moon
Riding near her highest noon,
Like one that had been led astray
Through the heav’n’s wide pathless way;
And oft, as if her head she bow’d,
Stooping through a fleecy cloud.
ATTRIBUTION:Il Penseroso. Line 65.
BIOGRAPHY:Columbia Encyclopedia.
