Famous quotes containing the word shrieking:

Associate with others
Are coming fast along our way:
The wind is warning in our tree
And morning papers still betray
The shrieking of the mothers.”

Up knees of Jesus choking in the air,

A king of speechless clods and infants. Still
The world out-Herods Herod;”
