Wing Bones

Famous quotes containing the words wing and/or bones:

    But he her fears to cease
    Sent down the meek-eyed Peace;
    She, crowned with olive green, came softly sliding
    Down through the turning sphere,
    His ready harbinger,
    With turtle wing the amorous clouds dividing,
    And waving wide her myrtle wand,
    She strikes a universal peace through sea and land.
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    Here the bones of birth have cried,
    ‘Though Gods they were, as men they died’.
    Francis Beaumont (1584-1616)
