Day Saints

Famous quotes containing the words day and/or saints:

    “And though the shady gloom
    Had given day her room,
    The sun himself withheld his wonted speed,
    And hid his head for shame,
    As his inferior flame
    The new-enlightened world no more should need;
    He saw a greater Sun appear
    Than his bright throne or burning axle-tree could bear.”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)

    “The saints with their beau-peers whole worlds outwear,
    And things unseen do see, and things unheard do hear.”
    —Giles Fletcher, The Younger (1585–1623)
