Newly

Famous quotes containing the word newly:

    Shew’d him his room where he must lodge that night,
    Pull’d off his Boots, and took away the light:
    If any ask for him, it shall be sed,
    Hobson has supt, and ‘s newly gon to bed.
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    For Lawrence, existence was one continuous convalescence; it was as though he were newly reborn from a mortal illness every day of his life. What these convalescent eyes saw, his most casual speech would reveal.
    Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)

    ‘Alas!’ quoth he, ‘but newly born in fiery heats I fry,
    Yet none approach to warm their hearts or feel my fire but I.
    My faultless breast the furnace is, the fuel wounding thorns;
    Love is the fire, and sighs the smoke, the ashes shame and scorns;
    The fuel justice layeth on, and mercy blows the coals;
    The metal in this furnace wrought are men’s defiled souls;
    Robert Southwell (1561?–1595)
