Famous quotes containing the word woods:

    “Out of the woods my Master came,
    Content with death and shame.
    When Death and Shame would woo Him last,
    From under the trees they drew Him last:
    ‘Twas on a tree they slew Him—last
    When out of the woods He came.”
    —Sidney Lanier (1842–1881)
