Rossetti

Famous quotes containing the word rossetti:

    O love, my love! if I no more should see
    Thyself, nor on the earth the shadow of thee,
    Nor image of thine eyes in any spring,—
    How then should sound upon Life’s darkening slope
    The ground-whirl of the perished leaves of Hope,
    The wind of Death’s imperishable wing?
    —Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1828–1882)

    The wind flapped loose, the wind was still,
    Shaken out dead from tree and hill:
    I had walked on at the wind’s will,—
    I sat now, for the wind was still.
    —Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1828–1882)

    Remember me when I am gone away,
    Gone far away into the silent land;
    —Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)
