Metre Rapid Fire

Famous quotes containing the words rapid and/or fire:

    More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
    And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name:
    “Now, Dasher! now, Dancer! now, Prancer and Vixen!
    On, Comet! on, Cupid! on, Donder and Blitzen!
    To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall!
    Now dash away! dash away! dash away all!”
    Clement Clarke Moore (1779–1863)

    The day’s at end and there’s nowhere to go,
    Draw to the fire, even this fire is dying;
    Get up and once again politely lying
    Invite the ladies toward the mistletoe....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
