Famous quotes containing the words sand and/or seas:
“I look back at it amid the rain
For the very last time; for my sand is sinking,
And I shall traverse old loves domain
Never again.”

Whereby my heart may think, although I see not thee,
That thou wilt come, thy word so sware, if thou a livesman be.”
