Famous quotes containing the words rising, shed and/or loom:
“The waves have now a redder glow—
The hours are breathing faint and low—
And when, amid no earthly moans,
Down, down that town shall settle hence,
Hell, rising from a thousand thrones,
Shall do it reverence.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
“If you have tears, prepare to shed them now.”

the dark ships move, the dark ships move,
their bright ironical names
like jests of kindness on a murderer’s mouth;”
