Famous quotes containing the word swelling:

    The feathers of the willow
    Are half of them grown yellow
    Above the swelling stream;
    And ragged are the bushes,
    And rusty now the rushes,
    And wild the clouded gleam.
    Richard Watson Dixon (1833–1900)

    A Swelling of the Ground—

    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
