Sayfa 211 - WHEN you are old, and I am passed away — Passed, and your face, your golden face, is gray — I think, whate'er the end, this dream of mine, Comforting you, a friendly star will shine Down the dim slope where still you stumble and stray. So may it be : that so dead Yesterday, No sad-eyed ghost but generous and gay, May serve you memories like almighty wine, When you are old ! Dear Heart, it shall be so.
Sayfa 339 - The forests had done it; there they stood; We caught for a moment the powers at play: They had mingled us so, for once and good, Their work was done — we might go or stay, They relapsed to their ancient mood.
Sayfa 254 - Is it so small a thing To have enjoyed the sun, To have lived light in the spring, To have loved, to have thought, to have done; To have advanced true friends, and beat down baffling foes...
Sayfa 265 - I cry for still: I cannot be at peace In having Love upon a mortal lease. I cannot take the woman at her worth ! Where is the ancient wealth wherewith I clothed Our human nakedness, and could endow With spiritual splendour a white brow That else had grinned at me the fact I loathed ?

Sayfa 193 - I say, beware of all enterprises that require new clothes, and not rather a new wearer of clothes. If there is not a new man, how can the new clothes be made to fit? If you have any enterprise before you, try it in your old clothes.
Sayfa 325 - WHAT is to come we know not. But we know That what has been was good — was good to show, Better to hide, and best of all to bear. We are the masters of the days that were: We have lived, we have loved, we have suffered . . . even so. Shall we not take the ebb who had the flow ? Life was our friend. Now, if it be our foe — Dear, though it spoil and break us ! — need we care What is to come...
Sayfa 112 - When the morning stars sang together, and the sons of God shouted for joy.
Sayfa 187 - ... have it said of him, as of Biron by Rosaline — " A merrier man Within the limit of becoming mirth I never spent an hour's talk withal." In the three great " Banquets" of Plato, Xenophon, and Plutarch, the food is not even mentioned. In the words of the old Lambeth...
Sayfa 125 - An' a Rosie Show in Down; An' 'tis like there's wan I'm thinkin' '111 be held in Randalstown. But if I had the choosin' Av a rosie prize the day, 'Twould be a pink wee rosie Like he plucked whin rakin
