Lonely Goatherd

Famous quotes containing the words lonely and/or goatherd:

    Beloved, let your eyes half close, and your heart beat
    Over my heart, and your hair fall over my breast,
    Drowning love’s lonely hour in deep twilight of rest....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Say that the men of the old black tower
    Though they but feed as the goatherd feeds,
    Their money spent, their wine gone sour,
    Lack nothing that a soldier needs,
    That all are oath-bound men;
    Those banners come not in.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
