Famous quotes containing the words tree and/or fall:
“But when the bowels of the earth were sought,
And men her golden entrails did espy,
This mischief then into the world was brought,
This framed the mint which coined our misery.
...
And thus began th’exordium of our woes,
The fatal dumb-show of our misery;
Here sprang the tree on which our mischief grows,
The dreary subject of world’s tragedy.”
—Michael Drayton (1563–1631)
“Waves sparkle and delight
the weary eyes
that never saw the sun fall in the sea
nor the bright Pleiads rise.”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
