Thou Wilt

Famous quotes containing the words thou and/or wilt:

    —No, no thou hast not felt the lapse of hours!
    For what wears out the life of mortal men?
    ‘Tis that from change to change their being rolls;
    ‘Tis that repeated shocks, again, again,
    Exhaust the energy of strongest souls
    And numb the elastic powers.
    Matthew Arnold (1822–1888)

    open thou thy manly mouth, and say that thou wilt come;
    Whereby my heart may think, although I see not thee,
    That thou wilt come, thy word so sware, if thou a livesman be.
    —Unknown. The Lady Prayeth the Return of Her Lover Abiding on the Seas (l. 4–6)
