Additional quotes by Thomas Buchanan Read

We bring roses, beautiful fresh roses,
Dewy as the morning and colored like the dawn.

The terrible rumble, grumble and roar
Telling the battle was on once more—
And Sheridan twenty miles away!

Within the sober realm of leafless trees, The russet year inhaled the dreamy air;
Like some tanned reaper, in his hour of ease, When all the fields are lying brown and bare.

With dreamful eyes My spirit lies Under the walls of Paradise. - Thomas Buchanan Read
