Famous quotes containing the words sea and/or birds:
“The sea is calm to-night.
The tide is full, the moon lies fair
Upon the straits;—”

“It was soldiers went marching over the rocks
And still the birds came, came in watery flocks,
Because it was spring and the birds had to come.
No doubt that soldiers had to be marching
And that drums had to be rolling, rolling, rolling.”
