William Barnes quotes

But no. Too soon I voun' my charm abroke. Noo comely soul in white like her- Noo soul a-steppen light like her- An' nwone o' comely height like her- Went by; but all my grief agean awoke. (William Barnes)
Since I do miss your vaïce an' feäce   In praÿer at eventide, I'll praÿ wi' woone said vaïce vor greäce   To goo where you do bide. View quote
