Trees Planted

Famous quotes containing the words trees and/or planted:

    Out of the woods my Master came,
    Content with death and shame.
    When Death and Shame would woo Him last,
    From under the trees they drew Him last:
    ‘Twas on a tree they slew Him—last
    When out of the woods He came.
    Sidney Lanier (1842–1881)

    He planted where the deluge ploughed,
    His hired hands were wind and cloud;
    His eyes detect the Gods concealed
    In the hummock of the field.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
