Swell

Famous quotes containing the word swell:

“Draw up the dew. Swell with pacific violence.
Take shape in silence. Grow as the clouds grew.
Beautiful brood the cornlands, and you are heavy;
Leafy the boughs—they also hide big fruit.”

The storm is up, and all is on the hazard.”

That stands upon the swell at the full of tide,
And neither way inclines.”
