Feet Bound

Famous quotes containing the words feet and/or bound:

    The stairway is not
    a thing of gleaming strands
    a radiant evanescence
    for angels’ feet that only glance in their tread, and need not
    touch the stone.
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    Or seen the furrows shine but late upturned,
    And where the fieldfare followed in the rear,
    When all the fields around lay bound and hoar
    Beneath a thick integument of snow.
    So by God’s cheap economy made rich
    To go upon my winter’s task again.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
