Quotes by Christina Rossetti
Christina Rossetti published Goblin Market and Other Poems in 1862, with illustrations by her brother Dante Gabriel Rossetti. She also wrote devotional verse and prose, and is remembered for lyrics such as Remember and A Birthday. Her poem In the Bleak Midwinter later became a Christmas carol.
Does the road wind up-hill all the way? / Yes, to the very end.
My heart is like a singing bird / Whose nest is in a watered shoot;
Remember me when I am gone away, / Gone far away into the silent land;
When I am dead, my dearest, / Sing no sad songs for me;
