Dear Lord London

Famous quotes containing the words dear, lord and/or london:

    Pan’s Syrinx was a girl indeed,
    Though now she’s turned into a reed;
    From that dear reed Pan’s pipe does come,
    A pipe that strikes Apollo dumb;
    Nor flute, nor lute, nor gittern can
    So chant it, as the pipe of Pan;
    John Lyly (1553–1606)

    Now the spirit of the LORD departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the LORD tormented him.
    Bible: Hebrew, 1 Samuel 16:14.

    Our haughty life is crowned with darkness,
    Like London with its own black wreath,
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
