Additional quotes by Robert Bridges

Perfect little body, without fault or stain on thee,
With promise of strength and manhood full and fair!

The evening darkens over
After a day so bright,
The windcapt waves discover
That wild will be the night.

For beauty being the best of all we know
Sums up the unsearchable and secret aims
Of nature.
