A. E. Housman quotes on home

27. Far in a western brookland That bred me long ago The poplars stand and tremble By pools I used to know.

39. Happy bridegroom, Hesper brings All desired and timely things. All whom morning sends to roam, Hesper loves to lead them home. Home return who him behold, Child to mother, sheep to fold, Bird to nest from wandering wide: Happy bridegroom, seek your bride.
