Longfellow

Famous quotes containing the word longfellow:

“This is the poem of the air,
Slowly in silent syllables recorded;
This is the secret of despair,
Long in its cloudy bosom hoarded,
Now whispered and revealed
To wood and field.”

That is not akin to pain,
And resembles sorrow only
As the mist resembles the rain.”

And said, “O mists, make room for me.””
