Ramage Departed

Famous quotes containing the words ramage and/or departed:

    My lute, be as thou wert when thou didst grow
    With thy green mother in some shady grove,
    When immelodious winds but made thee move,
    And birds their ramage did on thee bestow.
    William Drummond, of Hawthornden (1585–1649)

    [It is possible] that the race of red men ... will, before many generations, be remembered only as a strange, weird, dream-like specter, which has passed once before the eyes of men, but had departed forever.
    James A. Garfield (1831–1881)
