Dragon Calvary

Famous quotes containing the words dragon and/or calvary:

    Opinion is not worth a rush;
    In this altar-piece the knight,
    Who grips his long spear so to push
    That dragon through the fading light,
    Loved the lady; and it’s plain
    The half-dead dragon was her thought....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    shows its berries red
    In token of the drops of blood
    Which on Calvary were shed.
    —Unknown. The Holly and the Ivy (l. 10–12)
