Bryant

Famous quotes containing the word bryant:

    Another hand thy sword shall wield,
    Another hand the standard wave,
    Till from the trumpet’s mouth is pealed
    The blast of triumph o’er thy grave.
    —William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)

    He who, from zone to zone,
    Guides through the boundless sky thy certain flight,
    In the long way that I must tread alone,
    Will lead my steps aright.
    —William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)

    Where are the flowers, the fair young flowers, that lately sprang
    and stood
    In brighter light and softer airs, a beauteous sisterhood?
    Alas! they all are in their graves;
    —William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)
