Lovell

Famous quotes containing the word lovell:

    Young soul put off your flesh, and come
    With me into the quiet tomb,
    Our bed is lovely, dark, and sweet;
    The earth will swing us, as she goes,
    Beneath our coverlid of snows,
    —Thomas Lovell Beddoes (1803–1849)

    Squats on a toad-stool under a tree
    A bodiless childfull of life in the gloom,
    Crying with frog voice, “What shall I be?
    Poor unborn ghost, for my mother killed me
    Scarcely alive in her wicked womb.
    —Thomas Lovell Beddoes (1803–1849)

    Is that the wind dying? O no;
    It’s only two devils, that blow
    Through a murderer’s bones, to and fro,
    In the ghosts’ moonshine.
    —Thomas Lovell Beddoes (1803–1849)
