Additional quotes by Robert Bridges

Were I a cloud I'd gather
My skirts up in the air,
And fly I well know whither,
And rest I well know where.

And Reason kens he herits in
A haunted house. Tenants unknown
Assert their squalid lease of sin
With earlier title than his own.

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