Valley Stream

Famous quotes containing the words valley and/or stream:

    Down in the valley,
    Valley so low,
    Hang your head over,
    Hear the train blow.
    —Unknown. Down in the Valley (l. 1–4)

    Ye gentle souls, who dream of rural ease,
    Whom the smooth stream and smoother sonnet please;
    Go! if the peaceful cot your praises share,
    Go, look within, and ask if peace be there:
    If peace be his—that drooping weary sire,
    Of theirs, that offspring round their feeble fire,
    Or hers, that matron pale, whose trembling hand
    Turns on the wretched hearth th’ expiring brand.
    George Crabbe (1754–1832)
