Mid Isle

Famous quotes containing the words mid and/or isle:

    “There, on the mountain and the sky,
    On all the tragic scene they stare.
    One asks for mournful melodies;
    Accomplished fingers begin to play.
    Their eyes mid many wrinkles, their eyes,
    Their ancient, glittering eyes, are gay.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    And lays them in a row.
    To an isle in the water
    With her would I go.”
