Famous quotes containing the word crowned:

“Our haughty life is crowned with darkness,
Like London with its own black wreath,”

Wild-horses, crowned with grass,
Swept among the feasting gods
With fir-shoots
Toward the wine-jars.”

And dressed myself in such humility
That I did pluck allegiance from men’s hearts,
Loud shouts and salutations from their mouths,
Even in the presence of the crowned King.”
