William Cullen Bryant Quotes
Stand here by my side and turn, I pray,
On the lake below thy gentle eyes;
The clouds hang over it, heavy and gray,
And dark and silent the water lies;
And out of that frozen mist the snow
In wavering flakes begins to flow;
Flake after flake,
They sink in the dark and silent lake.

On the lake below thy gentle eyes;

And dark and silent the water lies;

In wavering flakes begins to flow;
Flake after flake,
They sink in the dark and silent lake.
