Sad Eyed Lady

Famous quotes containing the words sad, eyed and/or lady:

    Follow your saint, follow with accents sweet;
    Haste you, sad notes, fall at her flying feet.
    There, wrapped in cloud of sorrow, pity move,
    And tell the ravisher of my soul I perish for her love.
    Thomas Campion (1567–1620)

    This morning, there flew up the lane
    A timid lady-bird to our bird-bath
    And eyed her image dolefully as death;
    John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)

    But when his horse had put its hoof
    Into a rabbit hole
    He dropped upon his head and died.
    His lady saw it all
    And dropped and died thereon, for she
    Loved him with her soul.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
