Famous quotes containing the words fringe and/or field:
“A lake is the landscapes most beautiful and expressive feature. It is earths eye; looking into which the beholder measures the depth of his own nature. The fluviatile trees next the shore are the slender eyelashes which fringe it, and the wooded hills and cliffs around are its overhanging brows.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“My mother thinks us long away;
Tis time the field were mown.
She had two sons at rising day,
To-night shell be alone.”
