Sweet

Famous quotes containing the word sweet:

“O why do you walk through the fields in gloves,
Missing so much and so much?
O fat white woman whom nobody loves,
Why do you walk through the fields in gloves,
When the grass is soft as the breast of doves
And shivering sweet to the touch?”
—Frances Cornford (1886–1960)

“She’s taen out her little pen-knife,
Fine flowers in the valley,
And twinned the sweet babe o’ its life,
And the green leaves they grow rarely.”
—Unknown. The Cruel Mother (l. 9–12)

“Thus am I still provoked to every evil
By this good wicked spirit, sweet angel devil.”
—Michael Drayton (1563–1631)
