Emily Brontë (1818–1848)

    Still, as I mused, the naked room,
  The alien firelight died away;
And from the midst of cheerless gloom
  I passed to bright, unclouded day.

A little While.

    A heaven so clear, an earth so calm,
  So sweet, so soft, so hushed an air;
And, deepening still the dreamlike charm,
  Wild moor-sheep feeding everywhere.

A little While.
