James Russell Lowell Quotes:
Ocupation: Poet
Life: February 22, 1819 - August 12, 1891
Birthday: February 22
Death: August 12
Suddenly all the sky is hid As with the shutting of a lid, One by one great drops are falling Doubtful and slow, Down the pane they are crookedly crawling, And the wind breathes low; Slowly the circles widen on the river, Widen and mingle, one and all; Here and there the slenderer flowers shiver, Struck by an icy rain-drop’s fall.
