Famous quotes containing the words weeping and/or willows:
“And now where e’re he strayes
Among the Galilaean mountains,
Or more unwelcome wayes,
Hee’s follow’d by two faithfull fountaines,
Two walking Baths, two weeping motions;
Portable and compendious Oceans.”

I heard wind flaking sapphire, like this summer,
And willows could not hold more steady sound.”
