Weary

Famous quotes containing the word weary:

“Ye banks and braes o’ bonnie Doon,
How can ye bloom sae fresh and fair?
How can ye chant, ye little birds,
And I sae weary fu’ o’ care?

That wantons thro’ the flowering thorn:
Thou minds me o’ departed joys,
Departed never to return.”

Abate thy hours, shine comforts from the east.”
