Leaps

Famous quotes containing the word leaps:

    “My Phillis hath prime-feathered flowers
    That smile when she treads on them;

    That leaps since she doth own them.
    But Phillis hath so hard a heart—”
    —Thomas Lodge (1558?–1625)

    The darkness silvers away, the morn doth break,
    It leaps in the sky:”

    “I may not tell
    of the forms that pass and pass,
    of that constant old, old face
    that leaps from each wave
    to wait underneath the boat
    in the hope that at last she’s lost.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
