Dharma as Understood by Wordsworth
Excursion IV To every form of being is assigned An active principle: howe’er removed From sense and observation, it subsists In all things, in all natures; in the stars Of azure heaven, the unenduring clouds In flower and tree and every pebbly stone That paves the brooks, the stationary rocks, The moving waters and the invisible air. Whate’re exists hath properties that spread Beyond itself, communicating good A simple blessing or with evil mixed; Spirit that knows no insulated spot, No chasm, no solitude; from link to link It circulates, the Soul of all the worlds. William Wordsworth Excursion IV
