Famous quotes containing the word antoine:

    ‘Twas a balmy summer evening, and a goodly crowd was there.
    Which well-nigh filled Joe’s barroom on the corner of the square,
    —Hugh Antoine D’Arcy (1843–1925)

    And then I met a woman—now comes the funny
    part—
    With eyes that petrified my brain, and sunk into my heart.
    —Hugh Antoine D’Arcy (1843–1925)

    the vagabond began
    To sketch a face that well might buy the soul of any man.
    Then, as he placed another lock upon the shapely head,
    With a fearful shriek, he leaped and fell across the
    picture—dead.
    —Hugh Antoine D’Arcy (1843–1925)
