Vaughan Williams

Famous quotes containing the words vaughan and/or williams:

    “So stick up ivy and the bays,
    And then restore the heathen ways,
    Green will remind you of the Spring,
    Though this great day denies the thing,
    And mortifies the earth, and all,
    But your wild revels, and loose hall.”
    —Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)

    the moment of the cold’s
    deepest plunge we brought branches
    cut from the green trees

    to fill our need,”
    —William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
