Dryden

Famous quotes containing the word dryden:

    The sire then shook the honors of his head,
    And from his brows damps of oblivion shed
    Full on the filial dullness:
    —John Dryden (1631–1700)

    Thus intranc’d they did lie,
    Till Alexis did try
    To recover new breath, that again he might die:
    Then often they died; but the more they did so,
    The nymph died more quick, and the shepherd more slow.
    —John Dryden (1631–1700)

    Time and death shall depart and say in flying
    Love has found out a way to live, by dying.
    —John Dryden (1631–1700)
