Famous quotes by cullen bryant:

    Oh mother of a mighty race,
    Yet lovely in thy youthful grace!
    The elder dames, thy haughty peers,
    Admire and hate thy blooming years.
    —William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)

    When you can pipe that merry old strain,
    Robert of Lincoln, come back again.
    —William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)

    While glow the heavens with the last steps of day,
    Far, through their rosy depths, dost thou pursue
    Thy solitary way!
    —William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)

    When beechen buds begin to swell,
    And woods the blue-bird’s warble know,
    The yellow violet’s modest bell
    Peeps from the last year’s leaves below.
    —William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)

    So live that when thy summons comes to join
    The innumerable caravan that moves
    To that mysterious realm, where each shall take
    His chamber in the silent halls of death,
    Thou go not, like the quarry-slave at night,
    Scourged to his dungeon, but, sustained and soothed
    By an unfaltering trust, approach thy grave
    Like one who wraps the drapery of his couch
    About him and lies down to pleasant dreams.
    —William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)
