Labour Wages

Famous quotes containing the words labour and/or wages:

“Shall I find comfort, travel-sore and weak?
Of labour you shall find the sum.
Will there be beds for me and all who seek?
Yea, beds for all who come.”

The hour when earth’s foundations fled,
Followed their mercenary calling
And took their wages and are dead.”
