Thomas Bailey Aldrich Quotes
When the Sultan Shah-Zaman Goes to the city Ispahan, Even before he gets so far As the place where the clustered palm-trees are, At the last of the thirty palace-gates The pet of the harem, Rose-in-Bloom, Orders a feast in his favorite room-- Glittering square of colored ice, Sweetened with syrup, tinctured with spice, Creams, and cordials, and sugared dates, Syrian apples, Othmanee quinces, Limes and citrons and apricots, And wines that are known to Eastern princes.



In her eyes a thought Grew sweeter and sweeter, deepening like the dawn, A mystical forewarning.



So precious life is! Even to the oldThe hours are as a misers coins!



Night is a stealthy, evil Raven, Wrapt to the eyes in his black wings.



Upon the cunning loom of thought We weave our fancies, so and so.



What probing deep Has ever solved the mystery of sleep?



Turn on its noiseless hinges, delicate sleep!
