Blake Songs

Famous quotes containing the words blake and/or songs:

    For where’er the sun does shine,
    And where’er the rain does fall,
    Babe can never hunger there,
    Nor poverty the mind appall.
    —William Blake (1757–1827)

    When I am dead, my dearest, Sing no sad songs for me;
    Plant thou no roses at my head, Nor shady cypress tree:
    Be the green grass above me With showers and dewdrops wet;
    And if thou wilt, remember, And if thou wilt, forget.
    Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)
