Vault

Famous quotes containing the word vault:

“The constellated sounds
ran sprinkling on earth’s floor
As the dark vault above
with stars was spangled o’er.”

“Heaven froze above, severe; the clouds congeal,
And through the crystal vault appeared the standing hail.”
—Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)

“Howl, howl, howl! O, you are men of stones!
Had I your tongues and eyes, I’d use them so
That heaven’s vault should crack. She’s gone forever.
I know when one is dead and when one lives;
She’s dead as earth.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
