Gliding Birds

Famous quotes containing the words gliding and/or birds:

“How soon unaccountable I became tired and sick,
Till rising and gliding out, I wander’d off by myself,
In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time,
Look’d up in perfect silence at the stars.”

When woods are bare and birds are flown,”
