The Dewdrop slips into the shining sea! - Sir Edwin Arnold, Light of Asia (bk. VIII, last line) There is dew in one flower and not in another, because one opens its cup and takes it in, while the other closes itself and the drop runs off. So God rains goodness and mercy as wide as the dew, and if we lack them, it is because we do not open our hearts to receive them. - James H. Aughey Dew-drops, Nature's tears, which she Sheds in her own breast for the fair which die. The sun insists on gladness; but at night, When he is gone, poor Nature loves to weep. - Philip James Bailey Earth's liquid jewelry, wrought of air. - Philip James Bailey 'Tis- of the tears which stars weep, sweet with joy. - Philip James Bailey The dew, 'Tis of the tears which stars weep, sweet with joy. - Philip James Bailey, Festus (sc. Another and a Better World) Dewdrops, Nature's tears, which she Sheds in her own breast for the fair which die. The sun insists on gladness; but at night, When he is gone, poor Nature loves to weep. - Philip James Bailey, Festus (sc. Water and Wood--Midnight) Within the rose I found a trembling tear, Close curtained in a gloom of crimson night By tender petals from the outer light. - Hjalmar Hjorth Boyesen The starlight dews all silently their tears of love instill. - Lord Byron (George Gordon Noel Byron) Those tears of the sky for the loss of the sun. - 4th Earl of Chesterfield, Philip Dormer Stanhope The dews of the evening most carefully shun; Those tears of the sky for the loss of the sun. - 4th Earl of Chesterfield, Philip Dormer Stanhope, Advice to a Lady in Autumn Dew-drops are the gems of morning, But the tears of mournful eve! - Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Youth and Age Hushed as the falling dews, whose noiseless showers impearl the folded leaves of evening flowers. - William Congreve The dew-bead Gem of earth and sky begotten. - George Eliot (pseudonym of Mary Ann Evans Cross), The Spanish Gypsy (bk. I, song) Every dew-drop and rain-drop had a whole heaven within it. - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Hyperion (bk. III, ch. VII) See how the orient dew Shed from the bosom of the morn Into the blowing roses (Yet careless of its mansion new For the clear region where 'twas born) Round in itself incloses, And in its little globe's extent Frames, as it can, its native element. - Andrew Marvell, the Younger Or stars of morning, dew-drops which the sun Impearls on every leaf and every flower. - John Milton, Paradise Lost (bk. V, l. 746) The dew-drop in the breeze of morn, Trembling and sparkling on the thorn, Falls to the ground, escapes the eye, Yet mounts on sunbeams to the sky. - James Montgomery Dew depends not on Parliament. - James Otis The dew waits for no voice to call it to the sun. - Joseph Parker As fresh as morning dew distill'd on flowers. - William Shakespeare Liquid pearl. - William Shakespeare That same dew, which sometime on the buds was wont to swell, like round and orient pearls, stood now within the pretty flowerets' eyes, like tears that did their own disgrace bewail. - William Shakespeare I must go seek some dewdrops here, And hang a pearl in every cowslip's ear. - William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night's Dream (Fairy at II, i) A globe of dew Filling, in the morning new, Some eyed flower, whose young leaves waken On an unimagined world; Constellated suns unshaken, Orbits measureless are furl'd In that frail and fading sphere, With ten millions gathered there To tremble, gleam and disappear. - Percy Bysshe Shelley Displaying page 1 of 2 for this topic: Next >> [1] 2
