Famous quotes containing the words ground and/or fires:

    Having interr’d her Infant-birth,

    Of the wish’d Bridegroom of the earth.

    My flowery and green age was passing away, and I feeling a chill in
    the fires had been wasting my heart, for I was drawing near the
    hillside above the grave.
