Additional quotes by Madison Cawein

At daybreak Morn shall come to me
In raiment of the white winds spun.

When death hath poured oblivion through my veins
And brought me home, as all are brought, to lie
In that vast house, common to serfs and thanes,—
I shall not die, I shall not utterly die,
For beauty born of beauty—that remains.

Old homes! old hearts! Upon my soul forever
Their peace and gladness lie like tears and laughter.
