Going Down Hill on a Bicycle, A Boy’s Song With lifted feet, hands still, I am poised, and down the hill Dart, with the heedful mind; The air goes by in a wind. Swifter and yet more swift, Till the heart with a mighty lift, Makes the lungs laugh, the throat cry:— "O bird, see; see, bird, I fly. "Is this, is this your joy? O bird, then I, though a boy, For a golden moment share Your feathery life in the air!" mariospartan 20.02.2020 English Secondary School +5 pts Answered Read the poem given below and answer the questions that follow.Going Down Hill on a Bicycle, A Boy’s Song With lifted feet, hands still, I am poised, and down the hill Dart, with the heedful mind; The air goes by in a wind.
