Famous quotes containing the words navy and/or lark:
“I call to mind the navy great
That the Greeks brought to Troye town,
And how the boistous winds did beat
Their ships, and rent their sails adown;
Till Agamemnon’s daughter’s blood
Appeased the gods that them withstood.”
—Henry Howard, Earl Of Surrey (1517?–1547)
“The lark sitting upon his earthy bed, just as the morn
Appears, listens silent, then springing from the waving Corn-field,
loud
He leads the Choir of Day—”
—William Blake (1757–1827)
