Didst

Famous quotes containing the word didst:

    My lute, be as thou wert when thou didst grow
    With thy green mother in some shady grove,
    When immelodious winds but made thee move,
    And birds their ramage did on thee bestow.
    William Drummond, of Hawthornden (1585–1649)

    List, list, O list!
    If thou didst ever thy dear father love—
    ...
    Revenge his foul and most unnatural murder.
    ...
    Murder most foul, as in the best it is,
    But this most foul, strange, and unnatural.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    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)
