Yonder Mountain

Famous quotes containing the words yonder and/or mountain:

    “And yonder stands my brother Hugh,
    But by him my William, sweet and true.”
    Unknown. Binnorie; or, The Two Sisters (l. 51–52)

    I thought of Chatterton, the marvellous boy,
    The sleepless soul that perished in his pride;
    Of him who walked in glory and in joy
    Following his plough, along the mountain side:
    By our own spirits are we deified:
    We poets in our youth begin in gladness;
    But thereof come in the end despondency and madness.
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
