Do you do the Calvert schooling program? Well I know "the brothers are breaking their hearts" comes from the poem The Two Brothers. If you found out what the other one comes from let me know.

I'm finding a similar quote in a book by Anthony Trollope- nothing in poetry, however.

And as you hastened to add your comment, Ness, and claim to know how to find the source of the quote, why don't you just find it and tell us?

As a general comment on your 'dates' point, requests on 'Lost Quotations' can be assumed to be standing requests until they are answered. There's something about a piece of lost poetry that keeps crying to the heart like a missing child. People spend years on the lookout.

It seems the post from 'Ness' to which I responded has been removed by a moderator. Nothing lost by that except context.

that line comes from the called "THE ROMNEY" by harriet monroe
