War Douglas

Famous quotes containing the words war and/or douglas:

    The trumpets sound, the banners fly,
    The glittering spears are ranked ready;
    The shouts o’ war are heard afar,
    The battle closes thick and bloody;
    But it’s no the roar o’ sea or shore
    Wad mak me langer wish to tarry;
    Nor shout o’ war that’s heard afar,
    Its leaving thee, my bonnie Mary.
    Robert Burns (1759–1796)

    I want to die while you love me,
    And never, never see
    The glory of this perfect day
    Grow dim, or cease to be!
    —Georgia Douglas Johnson (1886–1966)
