Groves Met

Famous quotes containing the words groves and/or met:

    The word unto the prophet spoken
    Was writ on tables yet unbroken;
    The word by seers or sibyls told,
    In groves of oak, or fanes of gold,
    Still floats upon the morning wind,
    Still whispers to the willing mind.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Hidden by old age awhile
    In masker’s cloak and hood,
    Each hating what the other loved,
    Face to face we stood:
    “That I have met with such,” said he,
    “Bodes me little good.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
