Famous quotes containing the word vaughan:

    “A ward, and still in bonds, one day
    I stole abroad;
    It was high spring, and all the way
    Primrosed and hung with shade;
    Yet was it frost within,
    And surly winds
    Blasted my infant buds, and sin
    Like clouds eclipsed my mind.”
    —Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)

    “So stick up ivy and the bays,
    And then restore the heathen ways,
    Green will remind you of the Spring,
    Though this great day denies the thing,
    And mortifies the earth, and all,
    But your wild revels, and loose hall.”
    —Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)

    “My Soul, there is a Countrie
    Far beyond the stars”
    —Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)
