Famous quotes containing the word clare:
“In the cowslips peeps I lie,
Hidden from the buzzing fly,
While green grass beneath me lies,
Pearled wi dew like fishes eyes,
Here I lye, a clock-a-clay,
Waiting for the time o day.”

As that I stood before:
My heart has left its dwelling-place
And can return no more.”
