Westminster bridge
A bridge was reposed on Westminster of London, along Borough Road, and over Westminster Bridge. It's famous as the Big ben, Westminster Abbey, Ttheatre.
Composed up the Westminster Bridge
by William Wordsworth
Earth has not anything to show more fair:
Dull would he be of soul who could pass by
A sight so touching in its majesty:
This City now doth like a garment wear
The beauty of the morning: silent, bare,
Ships, towers, domes, theatres, and temples lie
Open unto the fields, and to the sky,
All bright and glittering in the smokeless air.
Never did sun more beautifully steep
In his first splendour valley, rock, or hill;
Ne'er saw I, never felt, a calm so deep!
The river glideth at his own sweet will:
Dear God! the very houses seem asleep;
And all that mighty heart is lying still!
这首诗中,诗人用朴实而充满感情色彩的语言描绘了夏秋之交从泰晤士河上的威斯敏斯特大桥眺望伦敦城清晨的景色。整个城市好像还在沉睡,晴朗的天空中晨光熹微,泰晤士河缓缓流向远方,一切是那么明净、庄重、优美。
