Buzzing

Famous quotes containing the word buzzing:

“In the cowslips peeps I lie,
Hidden from the buzzing fly,
While green grass beneath me lies,
Pearled wi’ dew like fishes’ eyes,
Here I lye, a clock-a-clay,
Waiting for the time o’ day.”
—John Clare (1793–1864)

‘Now that I come to die,
Do I view the world as a vale of tears?’
Ah, reverend sir, not I!”
—Robert Browning (1812–1889)

“Poor harmless fly,
That with his pretty buzzing melody
Came here to make us merry. And thou hast killed him!”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
