Bowed

Famous quotes containing the word bowed:

    The Powers whose name and shape no living creature knows
    Have pulled the Immortal Rose;
    And though the Seven Lights bowed in their dance and wept,
    The Polar Dragon slept,
    His heavy rings uncoiled from glimmering deep to deep....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    not flinching from her black breath
    gave her his arm....

    Are bowed in sorrow under pendulous lids,
    Because our love is waning.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
