Famous quotes containing the words light, horse and/or brigade:

To you, if you would take it in your hand.
Will you not let it in a gentle stream
Of living blood? How else may I remand
Your light if not as pulse upon your ear?”

Though mounted in that saddle Homer rode
Where the swan drifts upon a darkening flood.”
