Famous quotes containing the words swept and/or volume:

“But what now grips his fancy is her face,

And how the cunning picture holds her still
At just that smiling instant when her soul,
Grown sweetly faint, and swept beyond control,
Consents to his inexorable will.”
—Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)

“Thy commandment all alone shall live
Within the book and volume of my brain
Unmixed with baser matter.”
