Ground Burial

Famous quotes containing the words ground and/or burial:

    Just as the hand that strikes the ground cannot fail,
    So is the ruin certain of him who cherishes anger.
    Tiruvalluvar (c. 5th century A.D.)

    I heard the bell tolled on thy burial day,
    I saw the hearse that bore thee slow away,
    And, turning from my nursery window, drew
    A long, long sigh, and wept a last adieu!
    William Cowper (1731–1800)
