Famous quotes containing the words castle and/or perilous:
“The splendor falls on castle walls
And snowy summits old in story;
The long light shakes across the lakes,
And the wild cataract leaps in glory.
Blow, bugle, blow, set the wild echoes flying,
Blow, bugle; answer, echoes, dying, dying, dying.”
—Alfred Tennyson (18091892)
“The very form, the very scent,
not heavy, not sensuous,
but perilous perilous
of orchids, piled in a great sheath.”
—Hilda Doolittle (18861961)
