Famous quotes containing the words black and/or chasm:
“A black sun has appeared in the sky of my motherland.”

“But oh! that deep romantic chasm which slanted
Down the green hill athwart a cedarn cover!
A savage place! as holy and enchanted
As e’er beneath a waning moon was haunted
By woman wailing for her demon-lover!”
