Ye quenchless stars! so eloquently bright,
Untroubled sentries of the shadowy night.

More quotes by Robert Montgomery

The soul aspiring pants its source to mount,
As streams meander level with their fount.

And thou, vast ocean! on whose awful face
Time’s iron feet can print no ruin-trace.

The solitary monk who shook the world
From pagan slumber, when the gospel trump
Thundered its challenge from his dauntless lips
In peals of truth.

And not from Nature up to Nature's God,
But down from Nature's God look Nature through.
