Bid

Famous quotes containing the word bid:

“O bid me mount and sail up there
Amid the cloudy wrack,
For Peg and Meg and Paris’ love
That had so straight a back,
Are gone away, and some that stay
Have changed their silk for sack.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“And bid the devil take the hin’most.”
—Samuel Butler (1612–1680)

“O sweet everlasting Voices, be still;
Go to the guards of the heavenly fold
And bid them wander obeying your will,
Flame under flame, till Time be no more....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
