Night Goblins

Famous quotes containing the words night and/or goblins:

    This night has been so strange that it seemed
    As if the hair stood up on my head.
    From going-down of the sun I have dreamed
    That women laughing, or timid or wild,
    In rustle of lace or silken stuff,
    Climbed up my creaking stair.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Morning and evening
    Maids heard the goblins cry:
    ‘Come buy our orchard fruits,
    Come buy, come buy:
    Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)
