Philips Wing

Famous quotes containing the words philips and/or wing:

    And thou shalt in thy daughter see,
    This picture, once, resembled thee.
    —Ambrose Philips (1675–1749)

    But he her fears to cease
    Sent down the meek-eyed Peace;
    She, crowned with olive green, came softly sliding
    Down through the turning sphere,
    His ready harbinger,
    With turtle wing the amorous clouds dividing,
    And waving wide her myrtle wand,
    She strikes a universal peace through sea and land.
    John Milton (1608–1674)
