Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Quotes

When thou are not pleased, beloved, Then my heart is sad and darkened, As the shining river darkens. When the clouds drop shadows on it! When thou smilest, my beloved, Then my troubled heart is brightened, As in sunshine gleam the ripples. That the cold wind makes in rivers.

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
