Famous quotes containing the words turf and/or grass:

    “Oh! snatch’d away in beauty’s bloom,

    Their leaves, the earliest of the year;”

    “Here they are. The soft eyes open.
    If they have lived in a wood
    It is a wood.
    If they have lived on plains
    It is grass rolling
    Under their feet forever.”
