Famous quotes containing the words dow and/or closes:

    “The woman was old and ragged and gray
    And bent with the chill of the Winter’s day.”

    “The trumpets sound, the banners fly,
    The glittering spears are ranked ready;
    The shouts o’ war are heard afar,
    The battle closes thick and bloody;
    But it’s no the roar o’ sea or shore
    Wad mak me langer wish to tarry;
    Nor shout o’ war that’s heard afar,
    Its leaving thee, my bonnie Mary.”
    —Robert Burns (1759–1796)
