More quotes by Alfred Lord Tennyson
Willows whiten, aspens quiver, Little breezes dusk and shiver.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
The woods decay, the woods decay and fall, The vapours weep their burthen to the ground, Man comes and tills the field and lies beneath, And after many summer dies the swan. Me only cruel immortality Consumes: I wither slowly in thine arms, Here at the quiet limit of the world.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
It is hard to wive and thrive both in a year.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
Sweet is every sound, sweeter the voice, but every sound is sweet.

O Love! they die in yon rich sky, They faint on hill or field or river: Our echoes roll from soul to soul, And grow forever and forever. Blow, bugle, blow! set the wild echoes flying! And answer, echoes, answer! dying, dying, dying.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
O mighty-mouthed inventor of harmonies, O skilled to sing of Time or Eternity, God-gifted organ-voice of England, Milton, a name to resound for ages.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
Ring out the false, ring in the true.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
By blood a king, in heart a clown.
