Famous quotes containing the words mighty and/or fate:
“So in majestic cadence rise and fall
The mighty undulations of thy song,
O sightless bard, Englands Monides!
And ever and anon, high over all
Uplifted, a ninth wave superb and strong,
Floods all the soul with its melodious seas.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (18091882)
“So the old flute was doomed and its fate was pathetic,
Twas fastened and burned at the stake as heretic,
While the flames roared around it they heard a strange
noise
Twas the old flute still whistling The Protestant Boys.”
—Unknown. The Old Orange Flute (l. 3740)
