Doth

Famous quotes containing the word doth:

    Herein Fortune shows herself more kind
    Than is her custom. It is still her use
    To let the wretched man outlive his wealth,
    To view with hollow eye and wrinkled brow
    An age of poverty; from which lingering penance
    Of such misery doth she cut me off.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Dark night, that from the eye his function takes,
    The ear more quick of apprehension makes;
    Wherein it doth impair the seeing sense
    It pays the hearing double recompense.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Oh! joyous hearts! enfired with holy flame!
    Is speech thus tasseled with praise?
    Will not your inward fire of joy contain:
    That it in open flames doth blaze?
    For in Christ’s coach saints sweetly sing,
    As they to glory ride therein.
    Edward Taylor (1645–1729)
