Famous quotes containing the words shows and/or bird:
“When the reptile is attacked at one mouth of his burrow, he shows himself at another.”

“What bird so sings, yet so does wail?
O, ‘tis the ravished nightingale!

And still her woes at midnight rise.
Brave prick-song! who is’t now we hear?
None but the lark so shrill and clear;”
—John Lyly (1553–1606)
