Bridegroom

Famous quotes containing the word bridegroom:

    Having interr’d her Infant-birth,
    The watry ground that late did mourn,
    Was strew’d with flow’rs for the return
    Of the wish’d Bridegroom of the earth.

    Lovers lying two and two
    Ask not whom they sleep beside,
    And the bridegroom all night through
    Never turns him to the bride.

    A bridegroom in my death, and run into’t
    As to a lover’s bed.
