Bishop Dyer

Famous quotes containing the words bishop and/or dyer:

    The art of losing isn’t hard to master;
    so many things seem filled with the intent
    to be lost that their loss is no disaster.
    —Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)

    Below me trees unnumbered rise,
    Beautiful in various dyes:
    The gloomy pine, the poplar blue,
    The yellow beech, the sable yew,
    The slender fir that taper grows,
    The sturdy oak with broad-spread boughs.
    —John Dyer (1699–1758)
