Famous quotes containing the words smithy and/or bridge:
“When Sheba was his lass,
When she the iron wrought, or
When from the smithy fire
It shuddered in the water:
Harshness of their desire
That made them stretch and yawn....”

“What need the bridge much broader than the flood?”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
