Folded

Famous quotes containing the word folded:

“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)

“Romance, who loves to nod and sing,
With drowsy head and folded wing,”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

“The rounded world is fair to see,
Nine times folded in mystery.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
