Famous quotes containing the words rolled and/or armour:
“Far off she rolled and rolled
like a woman in labor

in antiquity, in nautical trade, in slavery, in war.”

The Fenian horses; armour torn asunder;
Laughter and cries. The armies clash and shock,
And now the daylight-darkening ravens flock.
Cease, cease, O mournful, laughing Fenian horn!”
—William Butler Yeats (18651939)
