Famous quotes containing the words righteous and/or babe:
“A town is saved, not more by the righteous men in it than by the woods and swamps that surround it.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“But see, the Virgin blest
Hath laid her Babe to rest:
Time is our tedious song should here have ending;
Heavens youngest teemed star,
Hath fixed her polished car,
Her sleeping Lord with handmaid lamp attending;
And all about the courtly stable,
Bright-harnessed angels sit in order serviceable.”
—John Milton (16081674)
