Blessed Virgin

Famous quotes containing the words blessed and/or virgin:

    And Cumhal saw like a drifting smoke
    All manner of blessed souls,
    Women and children, young men with books,
    And old men with croziers and stoles.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    When a man seduces a virgin who is not engaged to be married, and lies with her, he shall give the bride-price for her and make her his wife. But if her father refuses to give her to him, he shall pay an amount equal to the bride-price for virgins.
    Bible: Hebrew, Exodus 22:16.
