Famous quotes containing the words sad, eyed and/or lady:
“With fairest flowers
Whilst summer lasts and I live here, Fidele,
I’ll sweeten thy sad grave. Thou shalt not lack
The flower that’s like thy face, pale primrose, nor
The azured harebell, like thy veins; no, nor
The leaf of eglantine, whom not to slander,
Outsweetened not thy breath.”

A timid lady-bird to our bird-bath
And eyed her image dolefully as death;”
