Deep Water

Famous quotes containing the words deep and/or water:

    There was a sound of revelry by night,
    And Belgium’s capital had gathered then
    Her beauty and her chivalry, and bright
    The lamps shone o’er fair women and brave men;
    A thousand hearts beat happily; and when
    Music arose with its voluptuous swell,
    Soft eyes looked love to eyes which spake again,
    And all went merry as a marriage-bell;
    But hush! hark! a deep sound strikes like a rising knell!
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    ‘Tis not enough on roots and in the mouth,
    But give me water heavy on the head
    In all the passion of a broken drouth.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
