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)

    All that tread,
    The globe are but a handful to the tribes,
    That slumber in its bosom.
    —William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)

    on thy brow
    Shall sit a nobler grace than now.
    Deep in the brightness of the skies
    The thronging years in glory rise.
    And, as they fleet,
    Drop strength and riches at thy feet.
    —William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)
