Famous quotes containing the word daniel:

    No April can revive thy withered flowers,
    Whose blooming grace adorns thy glory now;
    Swift speeding Time, feathered with flying hours,
    Dissolves the beauty of the fairest brow.
    Oh let not then such riches waste in vain,
    But love whilst that thou mayst be loved again.
    —Samuel Daniel (1562–1619)
