Famous quotes containing the word riding:

Have shot my Fawn and it will die.

To kill thee. Thou ne’er didst alive
Them any harm: alas, nor could
Thy death yet do them any good.”

Comes designed to my love to steal not her tide raking
Wound, nor her riding high, nor her eyes, nor kindled hair,
But her faith....”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
