Famous quotes containing the word winter:

    “My beloved spake, and said unto me, Rise up, my love, my fair one,
    and come away.
    For lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone;
    The flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land;”
    —Bible: Hebrew The Song of Solomon (l. II, 10–12)
