Quotes[edit]
- Soft speech Provençal under the olives!
Like a queen’s raiment from days long perish’d,
Breathing aromas of old unremember’d
Perfumes and shining in dust-cover’d places
With sudden hints of forgotten splendour—
So on the lips of the peasant his language,
His only now, the tongue of the peasant.- "March Thoughts from England", in Wild Justice (1896), p. 26
