Thy Father

Famous quotes containing the words thy father, thy and/or father:

“Full fathom five thy father lies,
Of his bones are coral made;
Those are pearls that were his eyes;
Nothing of him that doth fade,
But doth suffer a sea-change
Into something rich and strange.
Sea-nymphs hourly ring his knell:
Ding-dong.
Hark! Now I hear them—ding-dong bell.”

Absent thee from felicity awhile,
And in this harsh world draw thy breath in pain
To tell my story.”
