Bell

Famous quotes containing the word bell:

“Its quick silver bell beating, beating
And down the dark one ruby flare
Pulsing out red light like an artery,”

“Where the bee sucks, there suck I,
In a cowslip’s bell I lie;
There I couch when owls do cry.
On the bat’s back I do fly
After summer merrily.
Merrily, merrily shall I live now,
Under the blossom that hangs on the bough.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
