Bowes Seal Fast

Famous quotes containing the words seal and/or fast:

    “Shut not so soon; the dull-eyed night
    Has not yet begun
    To make a seizure on the light,
    Or to seal up the sun.”
    —Robert Herrick (1591–1674)

    “And here the precious dust is layd;
    Whose purely temper’d Clay was made
    So fine, that it the guest betray’d.

    Else the soule grew so fast within,
    It broke the outward shell of sinne,
    And so was hatch’d a Cherubin.”
    —Thomas Carew (1589–1639)
