Light Verse

Famous quotes containing the words light and/or verse:

    Serene stands the little captain,
    He is not hurried, his voice is neither high nor low,
    His eyes give more light to us than our battle-lanterns.

    Toward twelve there in the beams of the moon they surrender to us.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    When I a verse shall make,
    Know I have prayed thee,
    For old religion’s sake,
    Saint Ben, to aid me.
    Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
