Tumbling

Famous quotes containing the word tumbling:

    “Tell me how many beads there are
    In a silver chain
    Of evening rain,
    Unravelled from the tumbling main,
    And threading the eye of a yellow star:—
    So many times do I love again.”
    —Thomas Lovell Beddoes (1803–1849)

    “The rider, the birds that range
    From cloud to tumbling cloud,
    Minute by minute they change;”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    ““What tumbling cloud did you cleave,
    Yellow-eyed hawk of the mind,
    Last evening? that I, who had sat
    Dumbfounded before a knave,
    Should give to my friend
    A pretence of wit.””
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
