Additional quotes by Aubrey De Vere

Man should be ever better than he seems.

O Love-star of the unbeloved March, When cold and shrill,
Forth flows beneath a low, dim-lighted arch The wind that beats sharp crag and barren hill,
And keeps unfilmed the lately torpid rill!

How blue were Ariadne's eyes
When, from the sea's horizon line,
At eve, she raised them on the skies!
My Psyche, bluer far are thine.
