Bryant Fired

Famous quotes containing the words bryant and/or fired:

    All at once
    A fresher wind sweeps by, and breaks my dream,
    And I am in the wilderness alone.
    —William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)

    See where she comes, and smell how all the street,
    Breathes vineyards and pomegranates: oh, how sweet!
    As a fired altar is each stone,
    Perspiring pounded cinnamon.
    The phoenix-nest,
    Built up of odours, burneth in her breast.
    Who therein would not consume
    His soul to ash-heaps in that rich perfume,
    Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
