Famous quotes containing the word term:
“Why did you give no hint that night
That quickly after the morrow’s dawn,
And calmly, as if indifferent quite,
You would close your term here, up and be gone”

To point the term of human strife,
And on the low dark verge of life
The twilight of eternal day.”
