Thir

Famous quotes containing the word thir:

“But he his wonted pride
Soon recollecting, with high words, that bore
Semblance of worth not substance, gently rais’d
Thir fainting courage, and dispel’d thir fears.”
—John Milton (1608–1674)

“Towards him they bend
With awful reverence prone; and as a God
Extoll him equal to the highest in Heav’n:
Nor fail’d they to express how much they prais’d,
That for the general safety he despis’d
His own: for neither do the Spirits damn’d
Loose all thir vertue; lest bad men should boast
Thir specious deeds on earth, which glory excites,
Or close ambition varnisht o’er with zeal.”
—John Milton (1608–1674)
