Midnight Lullaby

Famous quotes containing the words midnight and/or lullaby:

    at mothy curfew-tide,
    And at midnight when the noon-heat breathes it back from walls and leads,
    They’ve a way of whispering to me—fellow-wight who yet
    abide—
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)

    Come, little boy, and rock asleep;
    Sing lullaby and be thou still;
    I, that can do naught else but weep,
    Will sit by thee and wail my fill:
    God bless my babe, and lullaby
    From this thy father’s quality.
    Nicholas Breton (1542–1626)
