William Grey Walter

Famous quotes containing the words grey and/or walter:

“There is grey in your hair.
Young men no longer suddenly catch their breath
When you are passing;
But maybe some old gaffer mutters a blessing
Because it was your prayer
Recovered him upon the bed of death.”

Set on my soul an everlasting head.
Then am I ready, like a palmer fit,
To tread those blest paths which before I writ.”
