Wooden Dome

Famous quotes containing the words wooden and/or dome:

    Whither went the lovely hoyden?
    Disappeared in blessed wife;

    Living in a baby’s life.

    Thus to him, to this schoolboy under the bending dome of day, is suggested that he and it proceed from one root; one is leaf and one is flower; relation, sympathy, stirring in every vein. And what is that root? Is not that the soul of his soul?
