Famous quotes containing the words grey and/or beaver:
“A face peered. All the grey night
In chaos of vacancy shone;
Naught but vast sorrow was there
The sweet cheat gone.”

“I saw young Harry with his beaver on,
His cuisses on his thighs, gallantly armed,
Rise from the ground like feathered Mercury,
And vaulted with such ease into his seat
As if an angel dropped down from the clouds
To turn and wind a fiery Pegasus,
And witch the world with noble horsemanship.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
