Additional quotes by Robert Bridges

Beauty is the highest of all these occult influences,
the quality of appearances that thru' the sense
wakeneth spiritual emotion in the mind of man.

On such a night, when Air has loosed
Its guardian grasp on blood and brain,
Old terrors then of god or ghost
Creep from their caves to life again.

Perfect little body, without fault or stain on thee,
With promise of strength and manhood full and fair!

The evening darkens over After a day so bright, The windcapt waves discover That wild will be the night. - Robert Bridges
