Famous quotes containing the words tree and/or fall:
“On a tree by a river a little tom-tit
Sang Willow, titwillow, titwillow!
And I said to him, Dicky-bird, why do you sit
Singing, Willow, titwillow, titwillow?
Is it a weakness of intellect, birdie? I cried,
Or a rather tough worm in your little inside?”
—Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (18361911)
“Follow your saint, follow with accents sweet;
Haste you, sad notes, fall at her flying feet.
There, wrapped in cloud of sorrow, pity move,
And tell the ravisher of my soul I perish for her love.”
—Thomas Campion (15671620)
