Tintern Abbey

I feel as if someone from three hundred years ago has been staring into my mind. These are feelings that I have always had. Feelings that were much stronger when I was young and should still be there somewhere. It is only necessary to close your eyes for some time to understand the tyranny of vision. My sister didn't live long enough to become a friend of that magnitude but la petite anglais came close.
