Famous quotes containing the words lap and/or time:
“Four and twenty at her back
And they were a clad out in green;

The warst o them might hae been his Queen.
On we lap and awa we rade
Till we cam to yon bonny ha
Whare the roof was o the beaten gold
And the floor was o the cristal a.”

But I do find it cowardly and vile,
For fear of what might fall, so to prevent
The time of lifearming myself with patience
To stay the providence of some high powers
That govern us below.”
