William Cullen Bryant Quotes
Lo! while we are gazing, in swifter haste
Stream down the snows, till the air is white,
As, myriads by myriads madly chased,
They fling themselves from their shadowy height.
The fair, frail creatures of middle sky,
What speed they make, with their grave so nigh;
Flake after flake,
To lie in the dark and silent lake!

Stream down the snows, till the air is white,
As, myriads by myriads madly chased,

What speed they make, with their grave so nigh;
Flake after flake,
To lie in the dark and silent lake!
