Famous Maurice Thompson Quotes

“Bubble, bubble, flows the stream
Like an old tune through a dream.”

Maurice Thompson

In Haunts of Bass and Bream.

“When Spring is old, and dewy winds
Blow from the south, with odors sweet,
I see my love, in shadowy groves,
Speed down dark aisles on shining feet.”

“She throws a kiss, and bids me run
In whispers sweet as roses’ breath;
I know I can not win the race,
And at the end, I know, is death.”
