Famous quotes containing the word shades:
“We saw Thee in Thy balmy nest,
Young Dawn of our Eternal Day!
We saw Thine eyes break from the East
And chase the trembling shades away.
We saw Thee and we blest the sight,
We saw Thee by Thine own sweet light.”
—Richard Crashaw (1613?1649)
“May we two stand,
When we are dead, beyond the setting suns,
A little from other shades apart,
With mingling hair, and play upon one lute.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
“... So its plain to be discerned
That the shades of holy men
Who have failed, being weak of will,
Pass the Door of Birth again,
And are plagued by crowds, until
Theyve passion to escape.”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
