Bowed

Famous quotes containing the word bowed:

    “Your eyes that once were never weary of mine
    Are bowed in sorrow under pendulous lids,
    Because our love is waning.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    The Powers whose name and shape no living creature knows
    Have pulled the Immortal Rose;
    And though the Seven Lights bowed in their dance and wept,
    The Polar Dragon slept,
    His heavy rings uncoiled from glimmering deep to deep....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Then bowed down the highest tree
    unto his mother’s hand;
    Then she cried, “See, Joseph,
    I have cherries at command.”
    Unknown. The Cherry-Tree Carol (l. 26–28)
