Commonly Sung

Famous quotes containing the words commonly and/or sung:

    Our poets have sung of wine, the product of a foreign plant which commonly they never saw, as if our own plants had no juice in them more than the singers.

    I have sung all night
    for the mouths that float back later,
    one by one,
    holding a lady’s wornout shoe.
