6779 Alfred Tennyson Tennyson 1809-1892 John Bartlett

 
NUMBER:6779
AUTHOR:Alfred Tennyson Tennyson (1809–1892)
QUOTATION:  Dear as remembered kisses after death,
And sweet as those by hopeless fancy feigned
On lips that are for others; deep as love,—
Deep as first love, and wild with all regret.
Oh death in life, the days that are no more!
