Orbis Moon

Famous quotes containing the words orbis and/or moon:

    Whoso desireth to know what will be hereafter, let him think of what is past, for the world hath ever been in a circular revolution; whatsoever is now, was heretofore; and things past or present, are no other than such as shall be again: Redit orbis in orbem.
    Sir Walter Raleigh (1552–1618)

    In such a night, when passing clouds give place,
    Or thinly veil the heaven’s mysterious face;
    When in some river, overhung with green,
    The waving moon and trembling leaves are seen;
