Sorrow for the lost Lenore
For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name Lenore
Nameless here for evermore.

Stanza 2.Edgar Allan Poe
» Edgar Allan Poe - all quotes »
Here was the world's worst wound. And here with pride
'Their name liveth for evermore' the Gateway claims.
Was ever an immolation so belied
As these intolerably nameless names?
Well might the Dead who struggled in the slime
Rise and deride this sepulchre of crime.Siegfried Sassoon
In the greenest of our valleys
By good angels tenanted,
Once a fair and stately palace
Radiant palace reared its head.Edgar Allan Poe
So fallen! so lost! the light withdrawn
Which once he wore;
The glory from his gray hairs gone
For evermore!John Greenleaf Whittier
In this life mercy and forgiveness is our way and evermore leadeth us to grace. And by the tempest and the sorrow that we fall into on our part, we be often dead as to mans doom in earth; but in the sight of God the soul that shall be saved was never dead, nor ever shall be.
Julian of Norwich
And as I played, a child came thro' the gate,
A boy who looked at me without a word,
As tho' he saw stretch far behind my head
Long lines of radiant angels, row on row.
That day we spoke a little, timidly,
And after that I never heard the voice
That sang so many songs for love of me.Sara Teasdale
