Famous quotes containing the word years:

    Three years she grew in sun and shower,
    Then Nature said, ‘A lovelier flower
    On earth was never sown;
    This Child I to myself will take;
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    Thou little Child, yet glorious in the might
    Of heaven-born freedom on thy being’s height,
    Why with such earnest pains dost thou provoke
    The years to bring the inevitable yoke,
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
