Longfellow

Famous quotes containing the word longfellow:

“Long, long, afterward, in an oak
I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end,
I found again in the heart of a friend.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)

“There was a little girl
Who had a little curl
Right in the middle of her forehead,
When she was good
She was very, very good,
But when she was bad she was horrid.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1822)

“It whispered to the fields of corn,
“Bow down, and hail the coming morn.”

It shouted through the belfry tower,
“Awake, O bell! proclaim the hour.”

It crossed the churchyard with a sigh,
And said, “Not yet! in quiet lie.””
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)
