Mixed Arms

Famous quotes containing the words mixed and/or arms:

    Those graceful acts,
    Those thousand decencies, that daily flow
    From all her words and actions, mixed with love
    And sweet compliance, which declare unfeigned
    Union of mind, or in us both one soul.
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    And to your more bewitching, see the proud,
    Plump bed bear up, and swelling like a cloud,
    Tempting the two too modest; can
    Ye see it brustle like a swan,
    And you be cold
    To meet it when it woos and seems to fold
    The arms to hug you? Throw, throw
    Yourselves into the mighty overflow
    Of that white pride, and drown
    The night with you in floods of down.
    Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
