("best treasure", "heavenly face"): it is telling us what the first quatrain so expressively showed. A sonnet of asymmetrical, top-heavy intensity then, turning its face away from the epiphanic to the quotidian – it can't be considered a great poem, or can it? Perhaps there are times when the one proverbial swallow really does make a summer.[by William Wordsworth]
