Lord Alfred Tennyson Quotations

On one side lay the Ocean, and on one/ Lay a great water, and the moon was full.

Only reapers, reaping early/ In among the bearded barley.

On the bald street breaks the blank day.

Ring out, wild bells, to the wild sky, The flying cloud, the frosty light: The year is dying in the night; Ring out wild bells and let him die. Ring out the old, ring in the new, Ring, happy bells, across the snow: The year is going, let him go;

Ring out the want, the care, the sin,/ The faithless coldness of the times.

Ring out the thousand wars of old,/ Ring in the thousand years of peace.

Ring out the feud of rich and poor,/ Ring in redress to all mankind.

Ring out false pride in blood and place,/ The civic slander and the spite.

Ring out a slowly dying cause,/ And ancient forms of party strife;/ Ring in the nobler modes of life,/ With sweeter manners, purer laws.

Ring in the love of truth and right,Ring in the common love of good.
