Didst

Famous quotes containing the word didst:

“Wise child, didst hastily return
And mad’st thy mother’s womb thine urn.
How summed a circle didst thou leave mankind
Of deepest lore, could we the center find!”
—Ben Jonson (1572–1637)

“The wanton Troopers riding by
Have shot my Fawn and it will die.
Ungentle men! They cannot thrive
To kill thee. Thou ne’er didst alive
Them any harm: alas, nor could
Thy death yet do them any good.”
—Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)

“Most glorious Lord of life! that, on this day,
Didst make thy triumph over death and sin;
And, having harrowed hell, didst bring away
Captivity thence captive, us to win:”
—Edmund Spenser (1552?–1599)
