晨读英文经典诗歌：Leisure

8 P$ k+ ]$ [. x- X8 G　　Leisure, thou goddess of a bygone age,
: c& T5 p1 @3 J& f% D* K　　When hours were long and days sufficed to hold
　　Wide-eyed delights and pleasures uncontrolled
　　By shortening moments, when no gaunt presage
　　Of undone duties, modern heritage,
　　Haunted our happy minds; must thou withhold
; i+ K$ A* u/ i% O- U' V5 D　　Thy presence from this over-busy world,
9 V$ C( R$ a& U4 L# V1 _　　And bearing silence with thee disengage
　　Our twined fortunes? Deeps of unhewn woods
　　Alone can cherish thee, alone possess
　　Thy quiet, teeming vigor. This our crime:
　　Not to have worshipped, marred by alien moods
* _. P; }- h+ \  [& Z6 t1 [　　That sole condition of all loveliness,
　　The dreaming lapse of slow, unmeasured time.
' o. A! X; ^! _
