Mw Power Barge

Famous quotes containing the words power and/or barge:

    “Swift as a shadow, short as any dream,
    Brief as the lightning in the collied night,
    That in a spleen unfolds both heaven and earth,
    And, ere a man hath power to say “Behold!”
    The jaws of darkness do devour it up.
    So quick bright things come to confusion.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Thou stately stream that with the swelling tide
    ‘Gainst London walls incessantly dost beat,
    Thou Thames, I say, where barge and boat doth ride,
    And snow-white swans do fish for needful meat:”
    —George Turberville (1821–1873)
