Crowe

Famous quotes containing the word crowe:

“Equilibrists lie here; stranger, tread light;
Close, but untouching in each other’s sight;
Mouldered the lips and ashy the tall skull.
Let them lie perilous and beautiful.”

But honor beat them back and kept them clear.”

Dragging his infected wound homeward
To sit tonight with the warm children
Naming the pretty kings of France.”
