Quotes
Thy braes were bonnie, Yarrow stream,When first on them I met my lover;Thy braes how dreary, Yarrow stream,When now thy waves his body cover!
The Braes of Yarrow
Thou hast no sorrow in thy song,No winter in thy year.
To the Cuckoo, reported in Bartlett's Familiar Quotations, 10th ed. (1919).
Oh could I fly, I'd fly with thee!We'd make with joyful wingOur annual visit o'er the globe,Companions of the spring.
