Bid

Famous quotes containing the word bid:

We bid be quiet when we hear it cry;
But were we burdened with like weight of pain,
As much, or more, we should ourselves complain.”

Up the brass barrel, velvet black inside,
At a star quaking in the other end.”

“Heap up mine arms, be tomb by sea-bord, and inscribed:
