Stars

"The quenchless stars, so eloquently bright, Untroubled sentries of the shadow'y night."

"But soon, the prospect clearing, By cloudless starlight on he treads And thinks no lamp so cheering As that light which Heaven sheds."

"The stars stand sentinel by night."

"And the day star arise in your hearts."

"Would that I were the heaven, that I might be All full of love-lit eyes to gaze on thee."

"Starry Crowns of Heaven Set in azure night! Linger yet a little Ere you hide your light:— Nay; let Starlight fade away, Heralding the day!"

"No star is ever lost we once have seen, We always may be what we might have been."

"One naked star has waded through The purple shallows of the night, And faltering as falls the dew It drips its misty light."

"Those who see the great God in the sun, moon, stars, earth, air, fire, and water, and always meditate on Him only, get success in life and are the true devotees."

"Hesperus bringing together All that the morning star scattered."

"Non est ad astra mollis e terris via.— There is no easy way to the stars from the earth."

"O that my spirit were yon heaven of night, Which gazes on thee with its thousand eyes."

"He that strives to touch a star, Oft stumbles at a straw."

"Clamorem ad sidera mittunt."

"As shaking terrors from his blazing hair, A sanguine comet gleams through dusky air."

"Each separate star Seems nothing, but a myriad scattered stars Break up the Night, and make it beautiful."

"The stars shall be rent into threds of light, And scatter'd like the beards of comets."

"She saw the snowy poles and moons of Mars, That marvellous field of drifted light In mid Orion, and the married stars—"

"Thus some who have the Stars survey'd Are ignorantly led To think those glorious Lamps were made To light Tom Fool to bed."

"Surely the stars are images of love."

"What are ye orbs? The words of God? the Scriptures of the skies?"

"The stars, Which stand as thick as dewdrops on the fields Of heaven."

"The star wasn’t poetry before the madwoman discovered it."

"I am not an arsenal of epithets or metaphors. I am the star, and the star shines. I am affirmation."
