Famous quotes containing the word bells:

    This is the gospel of labour, ring it, ye bells of the kirk!
    The Lord of Love came down from above, to live with the men who work.
    This is the rose that He planted, here in the thorn-curst soil:
    Heaven is blest with perfect rest, but the blessing of Earth is toil.
    Henry Van Dyke (1852–1933)

    Pancakes and fritters,
    Say the bells of St. Peter’s.
    Two sticks and an apple,
    Say the bells of Whitechapel.

    Kettles and pans,
    Say the bells of St. Ann’s.
    —Unknown. The Bells of London (l. 7–12)

    Now Lady Maisry is gone home,
    Made him a winding sheet,
    And at the back of merry Lincoln
    The dead corpse did her meet.

    And all the bells of merry Lincoln,
    Without men’s hands were rung,
    Unknown. Hugh of Lincoln (l. 61–66)
