Fallen Angel

Famous quotes containing the words fallen and/or angel:

    Saul and Jonathan were lovely and pleasant in their lives, and in
    their death they were not divided: they were swifter than eagles, they were stronger than lions.
    Ye daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you in scarlet,
    with other delights, who put on ornaments of gold upon your apparel.
    How are the mighty fallen in the midst of the battle!
    Jonathan, thou wast slain in thine high places.
    Bible: Hebrew Second Samuel (l. I, 23–25)

    While shepherds watched their flocks by night,
    All seated on the ground,
    The angel of the Lord came down,
    And glory shone around.
    Nahum Tate (1652–1715)
