Composed Among the Ruins of a Castle in North Wales
Read by LibriVox Volunteers
In celebration of Saint David's Day 2016 (or Dydd Dewi Sant), LibriVox.org presents multiple readings of Composed Among the Ruins of a Castle in North Wales by William Wordsworth. Embodying the melancholy of the uniquely welsh word "hiraeth", which roughly translates as a sense of longing for a place that can never be returned to or that never was, this poem is a fitting tribute to the celebration of the patron saint of Wales
