Famous quotes containing the words sad, eyed and/or lady:
“A little way within the gloom a roebuck raised his eyes
Brimful of starlight, and he said: The Stamper of the Skies,
He is a gentle roebuck; for how else, I pray, could He
Conceive a thing so sad and soft, a gentle thing like me?”

Shall drown in a grief as deep as his made grave,
And mark the dark eyed wave, through the eyes of sleep,
Dragging him up the stairs to one who lies dead.”

“Night makes no difference ‘twixt the Priest and Clerk;
Joan as my Lady is as good i’ th’ dark.”
