Ate Wolf Meat

Famous quotes containing the words ate, wolf and/or meat:

    “She that but little patience knew,
    From childhood on, had now so much
    A grey gull lost its fear and flew
    Down to her cell and there alit,
    And there endured her fingers’ touch
    And from her fingers ate its bit.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Wulf, my Wulf! Waiting for you
    has made me ill, your seldom coming,
    this sorrowing mood—not lack of meat.
    Do you hear, Eadwacer? Our poor whelp
    a wolf bears off to the wood.”
    —Unknown. Eadwacer (l. 13–17)

    “A little meat best fits a little belly,
    As sweetly Lady, give me leave to tell ye,
    This little Pipkin fits this little Jelly.”
    —Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
