Famous quotes containing the word tennyson:

    Sunset and evening star,
    And one clear call for me!
    And may there be no moaning of the bar,
    When I put out to sea,
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    And sweet it was to dream of Fatherland,
    Of child, and wife, and slave; but evermore
    Most weary seemed the sea, weary the oar,
    Weary the wandering fields of barren foam.
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    And year by year the landscape grow
    Familiar to the stranger’s child;
    —Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
