Famous quotes containing the words cunning and/or folk:

    O the cunning wiles that creep
    In thy little heart asleep!

    Then the dreadful night shall break.

    An’ when the earth’s as cauld’s the mune
    An’ a’ its folk are lang syne deid,
    On coontless stars the Babe maun cry
    An’ the Crucified maun bleed.
