Quotes
- “Beneath the crisp and wintry carpet hidA million buds but stay their blossomingAnd trustful birds have built their nests amidThe shuddering boughs, and only wait to singTill one soft shower from the south shall bidAnd hither tempt the pilgrim steps of Spring.”
- “For beauty being the best of all we knowSums up the unsearchable and secret aimsOf nature.”
- “When men were all asleep the snow came flying,In large white flakes falling on the city brown,Stealthily and perpetually settling and loosely lying,Hushing the latest traffic of the drowsy town.”
- “They gathered up the crystal manna to freezeTheir tongues with tasting, their hands with snowballing;Or rioted in a drift, plunging up to the knees.”
- “Perfect little body, without fault or stain on thee,With promise of strength and manhood full and fair!”
- “I love all beauteous things,I seek and adore them.”
