The tables Turned<br />

Up! Up! My friend, and clear your looks,<br />

Why all this toil and trouble?<br />

Up! Up! My friend, and quit your books,<br />

Or surely you’ll grow double.<br />

The sun above the mountain’s head,<br />

A freshening lustre mellow,<br />

Through all the long green fields has spread,<br />

His first sweet evening yellow.<br />

Books! ‘tis a dull and endless strife,<br />

Come, hear the wood<strong>la</strong>nd linnet,<br />

How sweet his music; on my life<br />

There’s more of wisdom in it.<br />

And hark! How blithe the throstle sings!<br />

And he is no mean preacher;<br />

Come forth into the light of things,<br />

Let nature be your teacher.<br />

She has a world of ready wealth,<br />

Our minds and hearts to bless-<br />

Spontaneous wisdom breathed by health,<br />

Truth breathed by chearfulness.<br />

One impulse from a vernal wood<br />

May teach you more of man;<br />

Of moral evil and of good,<br />

Than all the sages can.<br />

Sweet is the lore which nature brings;<br />

Our meddling intellect<br />

Mis-shapes the beauteous forms of thongs;<br />

-We mur<strong>de</strong>r to dissect.<br />

Enough of science and of art;<br />

Close up these barren leaves;<br />

Come forth, and bring with you a heart<br />

That watches and receives. 932<br />

autores <strong>de</strong> <strong>la</strong> edición, págs. 313 y 315 ): “Las mesas se volcaron/ ¡Arriba!, ¡arriba!, amigo mío, y ac<strong>la</strong>ra<br />

tu mirada,/ ¿por qué afanarse y preocuparse tanto <strong>de</strong> ese modo?/ ¡Arriba!, ¡arriba!, amigo mío, y <strong>de</strong>ja<br />

tus libros,/ porque en otro caso te habrás <strong>de</strong> volver doble.”/ “El sol sobre <strong>la</strong> cima <strong>de</strong> <strong>la</strong> montaña,/ un<br />

suave lustre fresco,/ por todos los <strong>la</strong>rgos campos ver<strong>de</strong>s ha extendido,/ su primer amarillo dulce <strong>de</strong> <strong>la</strong><br />

tar<strong>de</strong>.”/ “¡Libros! Es un pugnar aburrido y sin fin,/ ven, escucha al ver<strong>de</strong>rón <strong>de</strong>l bosque,/ cuán dulce es<br />

su música; por mi vida/ que hay más sabiduría en él.”/ “¡Y escucha!, ¡cuán alegre canta el tordo!/ Y no<br />

es predicador mezquino;/ acércate a <strong>la</strong> luz <strong>de</strong> <strong>la</strong>s cosas,/ Deja que <strong>la</strong> Naturaleza sea quien te<br />

enseñe.”/ “Tiene un mundo <strong>de</strong> riquezas preparadas,/ para ben<strong>de</strong>cir nuestros pensamientos y nuestros<br />

corazones-/ sabiduría espontánea que se respira con salud,/ verdad inspirada con alegría.”/ “Un<br />
