Famous quotes containing the words dragon and/or bones:
“And then at last our bliss
Full and perfect is,
But now begins; for from this happy day
The old Dragon underground,
In straiter limits bound,
Not half so far casts his usurped sway,
And, wroth to see his kingdom fail,
Swinges the scaly horror of his folded tail.”
—John Milton (16081674)

Immediate and inglorious; and the pang
Of famine fed upon all entrailsmen
Died, and their bones were tombless as their flesh;
The meagre by the meagre were devourd,”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (17881824)
