King Triton

Famous quotes containing the words king and/or triton:

“So doth the greater glory dim the less:
A substitute shines brightly as a king
Until a king be by.”

“I’d rather be
A Pagan suckled in a creed outworn;
So might I, standing on this pleasant lea,
Have glimpses that would make me less forlorn;
Have sight of Proteus rising from the sea;
Or hear old Triton blow his wreathed horn.”
—William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
