“In the downhill of life, when I find I'm declining, May my lot no less fortunate be Than a snug elbow-chair can afford for reclining, And a cot that o'erlooks the wide sea; With an ambling pad-pony to pace o'er the lawn, While I carol away idle sorrow, And blithe as the lark that each day hails the dawn, Look forward with hope for to-morrow.” LooksMaySeaTomorrowSorrowWideFortunateDawnEach DayChairsPaceIdleLawnsElbowsMorrowHailPadsCarolsPoniesLarksLess FortunateBlithe Author:John Churton Collins

“Monks congregate like dogs in a kennel, From contact with their superiors they acquire knowledge, Is one the course of the wind, is one the water of the sea? Is one the spark of the fire, of unrestrainable tumult? Monks congregate like wolves, From contact with their superiors they acquire knowledge. They know not when the deep night and dawn divide. Nor what is the course of the wind, or who agitates it, In what place it dies away, on what land it roars.” KnowsNightDiesCoursesWaterFireSeaLandDogWindSuperiorsContactDawnAcquireDividesSparksMonkTumultAgitate Author:Taliesin

“He continued on, on to the glacier, towards the dawn, from ridge to ridge, in deep, new-fallen snow, paying no heed to the storms that might pursue him. As a child he had stood by the seashore at Ljósavík and watched the waves soughing in and out, but now he was heading away from the sea. "Think of me when you are in glorious sunshine." Soon the sun of the day of resurrection will shine on the bright paths where she awaits her poet. And beauty shall reign alone.” ThinkingChildrenMightSunPathSeaPoetShiningWaveStormSnowPursueDawnFallenGloriousSunshineResurrectionReignHeadingsHeedThink Of MeGlaciersRidgesShine OnSeashore Author:Halldór Laxness
