God Save

Famous quotes containing the words god and/or save:

    What was he doing, the great god Pan,
    Down in the reeds by the river?
    Spreading ruin and scattering ban,
    Splashing and paddling with hoofs of a goat,
    And breaking the golden lilies afloat
    With the dragon-fly on the river.
    Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806–1861)

    Give me th’ avowed, th’ erect, the manly foe,
    Bold I can meet—perhaps may turn his blow;
    But of all plagues, good Heav’n, thy wrath can send,
    Save, save, oh! save me from the Candid Friend.
    George Canning (1770–1827)
