A beautiful poetic reading of George Gordon Byron's There is Pleasure in the Pathless Woods. Take a moment while walking to listen and recenter, relax, find a place of inner stillness and inspiration. There is a pleasure in the pathless woods, There is a rapture on the lonely shore, There is society, where none intrudes, By the deep Sea, and music in its roar: I love not Man the less, but Nature more, From these our interviews, in which I steal From all I may be, or have been before, To mingle with the Universe, and feel What I can neโ€™er express, yet cannot all conceal. George Gordon Byron

There is a pleasure in the pathless woods by George Gordon Byron.

There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,

There is a rapture on the lonely shore,

There is society where none intrudes by the deep sea and music in its roar.

I love not man the less,

But nature more.

And these are interviews in which I steal from all I may be or have been before,

To mingle with the universe and feel what I can never express yet cannot all conceal.
