“The fisher droppeth his net in the stream, And a hundred streams are the same as one; And the maiden dreameth her love-lit dream; And what is it all, when all is done? The net of the fisher the burden breaks, And always the dreaming the dreamer wakes.” DoneDreamBreakHundredBurdenStreamsDreamerLitFishermanMaidens Book:A Memorial of Alice and Phoebe Cary: With Some of Their Later Poems Source: A Memorial of Alice and Phoebe Cary: With Some of Their Later Poems
“True worth is in being, not seeming- In doing, each day that goes by, Some little good, not in the dreaming Of great things to do by and by. For whatever men say in their blindness, And spite of the fancies of youth, There's nothing so kingly as kindness, And nothing so royal as truth.” MenLittlesDreamKindnessYouthGreat ThingsThings To DoFancyEach DaySpiteBlindnessRoyalSeemingTrue Worth Book:The Poetical Works of Alice and Phoebe Cary Source: The Poetical Works of Alice and Phoebe Cary
