Dovedale

The Springs of Dove

By William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

SHE dwelt among the untrodden ways

Beside the springs of Dove,

A maid whom there were none to praise,

And very few to love:

A violet by a mossy stone

Half hidden from the eye!

Fair as a star, when only one

Is shining in the sky.

She lived unknown, and few could know

When Lucy ceased to be;

But she is in her grave, and oh!

The difference to me!
