George Meredith Quotes About Heaven

Quotes about: Heaven

• For singing till his heaven fills,
  'Tis love of earth that he instills,
  And ever winging up and up,
  Our valley is his golden cup,
  And he the wine which over flows
  To lift us with him as he goes.

  George Meredith

  Wine, Heaven, Singing

  1883 Poems and Lyrics of the Joy of Earth,'The Lark Ascending'.

• On a starred night Prince Lucifer uprose, Tired of his dark dominion swung the fiend . . . He reached a middle height, and at the stars, Which are the brain of heaven, he looked, and sank. Around the ancient track marched, rank on rank, The army of unalterable law.

  George Meredith

  Stars, Tired, Dark

  'Lucifer in Starlight'

• Sunrays, leaning on our southern hills and lighting
  Wild cloud-mountains that drag the hills along,
  Oft ends the day of your shifting brilliant laughter
  Chill as a dull face frowning on a song.
  Ay, but shows the South-west a ripple-feathered bosom
  Blown to silver while the clouds are shaken and ascend
  Scaling the mid-heavens as they stream, there comes a sunset
  Rich, deep like love in beauty without end.

  George Meredith

  Song, Laughter, Sunset

• Could I find a place to be alone with heaven,
  I would speak my heart out heaven is my need.
