Vaughan Williams

Famous quotes containing the words vaughan and/or williams:

“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)

“Practical to the end,
it is the poem
of his existence
that triumphed
finally;”
—William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
