Famous quotes containing the words high, offices and/or held:
“A ward, and still in bonds, one day
I stole abroad;
It was high spring, and all the way
Primrosed and hung with shade;
Yet was it frost within,
And surly winds
Blasted my infant buds, and sin
Like clouds eclipsed my mind.”
—Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)
“He has erected a multitude of new offices by a self-assumed power, & sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people & eat out their substance.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
“Even he was abashed
and I laughed
and held him close
when he went for the knot
of my underclothes
and I’d already untied it.”
—Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
