Lady Eve

Famous quotes containing the words lady and/or eve:

“Hark, hark, the lark at heaven’s gate sings,
And Phoebus’ gins arise,
His steeds to water at those springs
On chaliced flowers that lies;
And winking Mary-buds begin to ope their golden eyes;
With every thing that pretty is, my lady sweet, arise;
Arise, arise!”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“It was not a Southern watermelon that Eve took: we know it because she repented.”
