East Meadow

Famous quotes containing the words east and/or meadow:

“Once did She hold the gorgeous East in fee;
And was the safeguard of the West:”

“My aspens dear, whose airy cages quelled,
Quelled or quenched in leaves the leaping sun,
All felled, felled, are all felled;
Of a fresh and following folded rank
Not spared, not one
That dandled a sandalled
Shadow that swam or sank
On meadow and river and wind-wandering weed-winding bank.”
—Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)
