Famous quotes containing the words edward and/or taylor:

    The boatswain’s mate was very sedate,
    Yet fond of amusement, too;
    And he played hopscotch with the starboard watch,
    While the captain tickled the crew.
    —Charles Edward Carryl (1841–1920)

    The souls did from their bodies fly—
    They fled to bliss or woe!
    And every soul, it passed me by,
    Like the whizz of my cross-bow!
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
