Additional quotes by Sarah Helen Whitman

Star of resplendent front! Thy glorious eye
Shines on me still from out yon clouded sky.

The shy little may-flower weaves her nest;
But the south wind blows o'er the fragrant loam,
And betrays the path to her woodland home.

Again the fair azalea bows
Beneath her snowy crest.

The sweet imperious mouth, whose haughty valor Defied all portents of impending doom. - Sarah Helen Whitman
