Famous quotes containing the word ships:
“Oh, let me midlife mourn by the shrined
And druid herons vows
The voyage to ruin I must run,
Dawn ships clouted aground,
Yet, though I cry with tumbledown tongue,
Count my blessings aloud....”
—Dylan Thomas (19141953)

Come sailing by, come sailing by,
I saw three ships come sailing by,
On Christmas Day in the morning.”
