Straight Lines

Famous quotes containing the words straight and/or lines:

    Beauty, sweet Love, is like the morning dew,
    Whose short refresh upon the tender green
    Cheers for a time, but till the sun doth shew,
    And straight ‘tis gone as it had never been.
    Samuel Daniel (1562–1619)

    Child of Light! thy limbs are burning
    Through the vest which seems to hide them;
    As the radiant lines of morning
    Through the clouds ere they divide them;
    And this atmosphere divinest
    Shrouds thee wheresoe’er thou shinest.
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
