Quotation with: "oaks"
"The new church of St. John's, on Fifth Avenue, was thronged the
morning of the last Sunday of October, in the year 1880. Sitting
in the gallery, beneath the unfinished frescoes, and looking down
the nave, one caught an effect of autumn gardens, a suggestion of
chrysanthemums and geraniums, or of October woods, dashed with
scarlet oaks and yellow maples."

The twigs of the birch-trees, in token
Of warning, nodded,–and I exclaim'd:
"Dear Monarch, forgive what I've spoken!"

Tall oaks, branch-charmed by the earnest stars,
Dream, and so dream all night without a stir."

"You'd scarce expect one of my age
To speak in public on the stage;
And if I chance to fall below
Demosthenes or Cicero,
Don't view me with a critic's eye,
But pass my imperfections by.
Large streams from little fountains flow,
Tall oaks from little acorns grow."
