Newly

Famous quotes containing the word newly:

    Shew’d him his room where he must lodge that night,
    Pull’d off his Boots, and took away the light:
    If any ask for him, it shall be sed,
    Hobson has supt, and ‘s newly gon to bed.
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    O my luve’s like a red, red rose That’s newly sprung in June;
    O my luve’s like the melodie That’s sweetly play’d in tune.
    Robert Burns (1759–1796)

    The post-office appeared a singularly domestic institution here. Ever and anon the stage stopped before some low shop or dwelling, and a wheelwright or shoemaker appeared in his shirt- sleeves and leather apron, with spectacles newly donned, holding up Uncle Sam’s bag, as if it were a slice of home-made cake, for the travelers, while he retailed some piece of gossip to the driver, really as indifferent to the presence of the former as if they were so much baggage.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
