Upon 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 doth¹ 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'er² saw I, never felt, a calm so deep!

The river glideth³ at his own sweet will:

Dear God! the very houses seem asleep;

And all that mighty heart is lying still!

Venice

by Samuel Rogers

There is a glorious City in the Sea,

The Sea is the broad, the narrow streets,

Ebbing and flowing; and the salt seaweed

Clings to the marble of her palaces.

No track of men, no footsteps to and fro,

Lead to her gates. The path lies o'er¹ the Sea,

Invisible; and from the land we went,

As to a floating City — steering in,

And gliding up her streets as in a dream,

So smoothly, silently — by many a dome

Mosque-like, and many a stately portico,

The statues ranged along an azure sky;

By many a pile in more than eastern splendour,

Of old the residence of merchant kings;

The fronts of some, though time had shattered them,

Still glowing with the richest hues of art,

As though the wealth within them had run o'er.

Основная идея заключается в том, что такой город, как Лондон, может обладать глубокой и умиротворяющей красотой, особенно ранним утром, когда он тих и спокоен. Поэт выражает трепет перед величественным видом спящего города, находя глубокое чувство спокойствия и гармонии, которое может соперничать даже с природными пейзажами.
