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)

    “And the child not caring to whom he climbs his prayer
    Shall drown in a grief as deep as his made grave,
    And mark the dark eyed wave, through the eyes of sleep,
    Dragging him up the stairs to one who lies dead.”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
