Closed Hand

Famous quotes containing the words closed and/or hand:

    Pray but one prayer for me ‘twixt thy closed lips,
    Think but one thought of me up in the stars.
    William Morris (1834–1896)

    And Change with hurried hand has swept these scenes:
    The woods have fallen, across the meadow-lot
    The hunter’s trail and trap-path is forgot,
    And fire has drunk the swamps of evergreens;
    Yet for a moment let my fancy plant
    These autumn hills again: the wild dove’s haunt,
    The wild deer’s walk: in golden umbrage shut,
    Frederick Goddard Tuckerman (1821–1873)
