Suckling

Famous quotes containing the word suckling:

    Why so pale and wan, fond lover
    Prithee, why so pale?
    —Sir John Suckling (1609–1642)

    Thus while I sit and sigh the day
    With all his borrow’d lights away,
    Till night’s black wings do overtake me,
    Thinking on thee, thy beauties then,
    As sudden lights do sleepy men,
    So they by their bright rays awake me.
    —Sir John Suckling (1609–1642)

    And though my love pulls the pale, nippled air,
    Prides of to-morrow suckling in her eyes,
    Yet this I make in a forgiving presence.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
