Quotes
[edit]- Son nate nella selva del convento
dei cappuccini, tra le morte foglie che al ceppo delle quercie agita il vento.
- Si respira una dolce aria che scioglie
le dure zolle, e visita le chiese di campagna, ch'erbose hanno le soglie.
- un'aria d'altro luogo e d'altro mese
e d'altra vita: un'aria celestina che regga molte bianche ali sospese.[1]
