9 Quotes by Jean Ingelow

Man is the miracle in nature. God Is the One Miracle to man.
Against her ankles as she trod The lucky buttercups did nod.
And bitter waxed the fray; Brother with brother spake no word When they met in the way.
And old affront will stir the heart Through years of rankling pain.
Her face betokened all things dear and good, The light of somewhat yet to come was there Asleep, and waiting for the opening day, When childish thoughts, like flowers would drift away.
How gently rock yon poplars high Against the reach of primrose sky With heaven's pale candles stored.
The moon looks upon many night flowers; the night flowers see but one moon.
When sparrows build and the leaves break forth My old sorrow wakes and cries.
I have lived to thank God that all my prayers have not been answered.
