Meadows Place

Famous quotes containing the words meadows and/or place:

    Full many a glorious morning have I seen

    Gilding pale streams with heavenly alchemy;

    Some fluctuating notions concerning repentance, virtue, honor, morality ... hovered around Lady Dellwyn’s thoughts but were too wavering to bring her to any fixed determination. She became a constant attendant from one public place to another, where she met with many mortifications. But yet even these were not quite so dreadful to her as to retire and be subjected to her own company alone.
    Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)
