Flying Hour

Famous quotes containing the words flying and/or hour:

    No April can revive thy withered flowers,
    Whose blooming grace adorns thy glory now;
    Swift speeding Time, feathered with flying hours,
    Dissolves the beauty of the fairest brow.
    Oh let not then such riches waste in vain,
    But love whilst that thou mayst be loved again.
    Samuel Daniel (1562–1619)

    For the discerning intellect of Man,
    When wedded to this goodly universe
    In love and holy passion, shall find these
    A simple produce of the common day.
    MI, long before the blissful hour arrives,
    Would chant, in lonely peace, the spousal verse
    Of this great consummation—
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
