Thomas Hardy Quotes

The Next Morning, When Thomasin Withdrew The Curtains Of Her Bedroom Window, There Stood The Maypole In The Middle Of The Greek, Its Top Cutting Into The Sky. It Had Sprung Up In The Night. Or Rather Early Morning, Like Jack's Bean-stalk. She Opened The Casement To Get A Better View Of The Garlands And Posies That Adored It. The Sweet Perfume Of The Flowers Had Already Spread Into The Surrounding Air, Which Being Free From Every Taint, Conducted To Her Lips A Full Measure Of The Fragrance Received From The Spire Of Blossom In Its Midst. At The Top Of The Pole Were Crossed Hoops Decked With Small Flowers; Beneath These Came A Milk-white Zone Of Maybloom;then A Zone Of Bluebells, Then Of Cowslips, Then Of Lilacs, Then Of Ragged-rosins, Daffodils And So On, Till The Lowest Stage Was Reached.Thomasin Noticed All These, And Was Delighted That The May Revel Was To Be So Near.
