A night of tears! for the gusty rain Had ceased, but the eaves were dripping yet; And the moon look'd forth, as tho' in pain, With her face all white and wet. - The Wanderer (bk. II, The Portrait) [Night] They only fall, that strive to move, Or lose, that care to keep. - The Wanderer (bk. III, Futility, st. 6) [Destiny] The ages roll Forward; and forward with them, draw my soul Into time's infinite sea. And to be glad, or sad, I care no more; But to have done, and to have been, before I cease to do and be. - The Wanderer (bk. IV, A Confession and Apology, st. 9) [Age] Weary the cloud falleth out of the sky, Dreary the leaf lieth low. All things must come to the earth by and by, Out of which all things grow. - The Wanderer--Earth's Havings (bk. III) [Change] Unseen hands delay The coming of what oft seems close in ken, And, contrary, the moment, when we say "'Twill never come!" comes on us even then. - Thomas Munster to Martin Luther (l. 382) [Destiny] I loved you ere I knew you; know you now, And having known you, love you better still. - Vanini [Love] O be very sure That no man will learn anything at all, Unless he first will learn humility. - Vanini (l. 327) [Humility] The sylphs and ondines And the sea-kings and queens Long ago, long ago, on the waves built a city, As lovely as seems To some bard in his dreams, The soul of his latest love-ditty. - Venice [Venice] When time is flown, how it fled It is better neither to ask nor tell, Leave the dead moments to bury their dead. - Wanderer (bk. IV, Two out of the Crowd, st. 17) [Time] Displaying page 4 of 4 for this author: << Prev 1 2 3 [4]
