Wild Violets

Famous quotes containing the words wild and/or violets:

    And the heavy night hung dark
    The hills and waters o’er,
    When a band of exiles moored their bark
    On the wild New England shore.

    Lay her i’th’earth,
    And from her fair and unpolluted flesh
    May violets spring.
