Roe Green

Famous quotes containing the words roe and/or green:

    All day long in unrest,
    To and fro do I move,
    The very soul within my breast
    Is wasted for you, love!
    —Owen Roe MacWard (d. 1849)

    Meanwhile the mind from pleasure less
    Withdraws into its happiness;
    The mind, that ocean where each kind
    Does straight its own resemblance find;
    Yet it creates, transcending these,
    Far other worlds and other seas,
    Annihilating all that’s made
    To a green thought in a green shade,
    Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)
