Wing Flew

Famous quotes containing the words wing and/or flew:

    As if her velvet helmet high
    Did turret rationality.
    She fans her wing up to the winde
    As if her Pettycoate were lin’de
    With reasons fleece, and hoises saile
    And humming flies in thankfull gaile
    Edward Taylor (1645–1729)

    The wanton snow flew to her breast,
    Like pretty birds into their nest,
    But, overcome with whiteness there,
    For grief it thaw’d into a tear:
    Thence falling on her garments’ hem,
    To deck her, froze into a gem.
    William Strode (1602?–1645)
