Famous quotes containing the words drowned and/or meadow:
“he changed and ran
Through many shapes; I lunged at the smooth throat
Of a great eel; it changed, and I but smote
A fir-tree roaring in its leafless top;
And thereupon I drew the livid chop
Of a drowned dripping body to my breast....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“We are a meadow where the bees hum:
mind and body are almost one”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
