Weak Hand

Famous quotes containing the words weak and/or hand:

    When hearts have one mingled,
    Love first leaves the well-built nest;
    The weak one is singled
    To endure what it once possessed.
    O Love! who bewailest
    The frailty of all things here,
    Why choose you the frailest,
    For your cradle, your home, and your bier.
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    ah! the uplifted sword
    Of his hand again my bosom! and oh, the broad
    Blade of his glance that asks me to applaud
    His coming!
    —D.H. (David Herbert)
