Crowned

Famous quotes containing the word crowned:

    “A centaur-herd,
    Wild-horses, crowned with grass,
    Swept among the feasting gods
    With fir-shoots
    Toward the wine-jars.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “And then I stole all courtesy from heaven,
    And dressed myself in such humility
    That I did pluck allegiance from men’s hearts,
    Loud shouts and salutations from their mouths,
    Even in the presence of the crowned King.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “And all shall be well and
    All manner of thing shall be well
    When the tongues of flame are in-folded
    Into the crowned knot of fire
    And the fire and the rose are one.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
