Bryant

Famous quotes containing the word bryant:

    Merrily swinging on brier and weed,
    Near to the nest of his litle dame,
    Over the mountainside or mead,
    Robert of Lincoln is telling his name:
    Bob-o’-link, bob-o’-link,
    —William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)

    Where are the flowers, the fair young flowers, that lately sprang
    and stood
    In brighter light and softer airs, a beauteous sisterhood?
    Alas! they all are in their graves;
    —William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)

    Thou waitest late and com’st alone,
    When woods are bare and birds are flown,
    —William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)
