Famous quotes containing the words rang, air and/or base:
“No Time, spoke the clocks, no God, rang the bells,

And the coins on my eyelids sang like shells.”

“Lovely the woods, waters, meadows, combes, vales,
All the air things wear that build this world of Wales.”

Contaminate our fingers with base bribes,
And sell the mighty space of our large honors
For so much trash as may be grasped thus?

Than such a Roman.”
