Grew Weary

Famous quotes containing the words grew and/or weary:

    Lord Thomas was buried in the church,
    Fair Ellinor in the choir;
    And out from her bosom there grew a red rose
    And out of Lord Thomas a briar.
    —Unknown. Lord Thomas and Fair Annet (l. 77–80)

    And sweet it was to dream of Fatherland,
    Of child, and wife, and slave; but evermore
    Most weary seemed the sea, weary the oar,
    Weary the wandering fields of barren foam.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
