Lonely Shepherd

Famous quotes containing the words lonely and/or shepherd:

    Isolate city spread alongside water,
    Posted with white towers, she keeps her face
    Half-turned to Europe, lonely northern daughter,
    Holding through centuries her separate place.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    The Star that bids the Shepherd fold,
    Now the top of Heav’n doth hold,
    And the gilded Car of Day,
    His glowing Axle doth allay
    In the steep Atlantick stream,
    John Milton (1608–1674)
