    To a Skylark By Percy Bysshe Shelley          Hail to thee‚ blithe Spirit!                 Bird thou never wert‚          That from Heaven‚ or near it‚                 Pourest thy full heart In profuse strains of unpremeditated art.          Higher still and higher                 From the earth thou springest          Like a cloud of fire;                 The blue deep thou wingest‚ And singing still dost soar‚ and soaring ever singest.          In the golden lightning

    The cold hit him straight way‚ and he turned to the see the appealing glow of the gas lamp that cast silhouettes on the walls‚ the shadows dancing with each flicker of the small flame. The wind blew quiet but harsh and found its way through the gaps in his woollen overcoat. He turned up the collar and regretted that there was no button to keep it in place. He scurried down the well-trodden path‚ passing withering plants and whatever else lay in the darkness. Without warning‚ the headlights of
