Famous quotes containing the words river and/or vale:
“Hard by the lilied Nile I saw
A duskish river dragon stretched along.
The brown habergeon of his limbs enamelled
With sanguine alamandines and rainy pearl:
And on his back there lay a young one sleeping,
No bigger than a mouse;”
—Thomas Lovell Beddoes (18031849)
“In the vale of restless mind
I sought in mountain and in mead,
Trusting a true love for to find.”
