Dragon Calvary

Famous quotes containing the words dragon and/or calvary:

    The Powers whose name and shape no living creature knows
    Have pulled the Immortal Rose;
    And though the Seven Lights bowed in their dance and wept,
    The Polar Dragon slept,
    His heavy rings uncoiled from glimmering deep to deep....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    shows its berries red
    In token of the drops of blood
    Which on Calvary were shed.
    —Unknown. The Holly and the Ivy (l. 10–12)
