Heavy Bear

Famous quotes containing the words heavy and/or bear:

    “Slow, slow, fresh fount, keep time with my salt tears;
    Yet slower yet, oh faintly gentle springs:
    List to the heavy part the music bears,
    “Woe weeps out her division when she sings.”
    Droop herbs and flowers;
    Fall grief in showers;
    “Our beauties are not ours”:
    Oh, I could still,
    Like melting snow upon some craggy hill,
    Drop, drop, drop, drop,
    Since nature’s pride is, now, a withered daffodil.”
    —Ben Jonson (1572–1637)

    “Thine eyes shall see the light of distant skies:
    Yet, Cole! thy heart shall bear to Europe’s strand
    A living image of our own bright land,
    Such as upon thy glorious canvas lies;”
    —William Cullen Bryant (1794–1878)
