Additional quotes by Dante Gabriel Rossetti

Drat verse,
And steam, and Paris, and the fins of Time!

And Love, our light at night and shade at noon,
Lulls us to rest with songs, and turns away
All shafts of shelterless tumultuous day.

The day when I must die,
That day by water or fire or air
My feet shall fall in the destined snare Wherever my road may lie.
