Hebrew Melodies Quotes

“Bright is the diadem, boundless the sway,
Or kingly the death, which awaits us to-day!”
― Lord Byron, Hebrew Melodies

“Away! we know that tears are vain,
That Death nor heeds nor hears distress:
Will this unteach us to complain?
Or make one mourner weep the less?
And thou — who tell’st me to forget,
Thy looks are wan, thine eyes are wet.”
― Lord Byron, Hebrew Melodies

“Tribes of the wandering foot and weary breast,
How shall ye flee away and be at rest!
The wild-dove hath her nest, the fox his cave,
Mankind their country — Israel but the grave!”
― Lord Byron, Hebrew Melodies
