Mounting Bd Mark

Famous quotes containing the words mounting and/or mark:

    “Grim-visaged War hath smoothed his wrinkled front;
    And now, instead of mounting barbed steeds
    To fright the souls of fearful adversaries,
    He capers nimbly in a lady’s chamber
    To the lascivious pleasing of a lute.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “They will mark the stone-battlements
    And the circle of them
    With a bright stain.
    They will cast out the dead
    A sight for Priam’s queen to lament
    And her frightened daughters.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
