Eastern

Famous quotes containing the word eastern:

    “But we are spirits of another sort.
    I with the morning’s love have oft made sport,
    And like a forester the groves may tread
    Even till the eastern gate, all fiery-red,
    Opening on Neptune with fair blessèd beams,
    Turns unto yellow gold his salt green streams.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “The grey-eyed morn smiles on the frowning night,
    Checkering the eastern clouds with streaks of light.”

    The star-led Wizards haste with odours sweet . . .”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)
