I hear in the chamber above me
The patter of little feet,
The sound of a door that is opened,
And voices soft and sweet.

Additional quotes by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Each morning sees some task begun, each evening sees it close; Something attempted, something done, has earned a night's repose.

Stars of the summer night!
Far in yon azure deeps,
Hide, hide your golden light!
She sleeps!
My lady sleeps!

Ye have slept on the ground before, And started to your feet At the cannon’s sudden roar, Or the drum’s redoubling beat. But in this camp of Death No sound your slumber breaks; Here is no fevered breath, No wound that bleeds and aches.

I hear in the chamber above me The patter of little feet, The sound of a door that is opened, And voices soft and sweet. - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
