Additional quotes by Alfred Tennyson

Here at the quiet limit of the world.

The great brand Made lightnings in the splendour of the moon, And flashing round and round, and whirl'd in an arch, Shot like a streamer of the northern morn, Seen where the moving isles of winter shock By night, with noises of the northern sea. So flash'd and fell the brand Excalibur.

The seasons bring the flower again, And bring the firstling to the flock; And in the dusk of thee the clock Beats out the little lives of men

And so there grew great tracts of wilderness, Wherin the beast was ever more and more, But man was less and less, till Arthur came. - Alfred Tennyson
