John Bartlett (1820–1905).  Familiar Quotations, 10th ed.  1919.
 
 
NUMBER:7972
AUTHOR:Sarah Doudney (1843– ?)
QUOTATION:The pure, the beautiful, the bright,
  That stirred our hearts in youth,
The impulse to a wordless prayer,
  The dreams of love and truth,
The longings after something lost,
  The spirit’s yearning cry,
The strivings after better hopes,—
  These things can never die.
ATTRIBUTION:Things that never die.
