Bay Mare

Famous quotes containing the words bay and/or mare:

    “Shall we now
    Contaminate our fingers with base bribes,
    And sell the mighty space of our large honors
    For so much trash as may be grasped thus?
    I had rather be a dog and bay the moon
    Than such a Roman.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Is a burden hard to be borne:
    The evening light on the foam, and the swans, there;
    That music, remote, forlorn.”
    —Walter De La Mare (1873–1956)
