A heaven so clear, an earth so calm,So sweet, so soft, so hushed an air;And, deepening still the dreamlike charm,Wild moor-sheep feeding everywhere.
emily brontë— Stanza vii.
Oh, London is a man’s town, there’s power in the air;And Paris is a woman’s town, with flowers in her hair;And it’s sweet to dream in Venice, and it’s great to study Rome;But when it comes to living, there is no place like home.
henry van dyke— Lines 9-12.
But you are mobile as the veering air,And all your charms more changeful than the tide,Wherefore to be inconstant is no care:I have but to continue at your side.So wanton, light and false, my love, are you,I am most faithless when I most am true.
edna st. vincent millay— From Sonnet III: "Oh, Think not I am faithful to a vow!", A Few Figs from Thistles (1922)
