Famous quotes containing the words hawthorn and/or press:
“The soldier’s is the trade:
In any wind or weather
He steals the heart of maid
And man together.
The lover and his lass
Beneath the hawthorn lying,”

of lovers, of loneliness
drowns me,
alas that their very names
so press to break my heart
with heart-sick weariness.”
