Tents Sleeping

Famous quotes containing the words tents and/or sleeping:

“it pleaseth me when I see through the meadows
The tents and pavilions set up, and great joy have I
When I see o’er the campana knights armed and horses arrayed.

And it pleaseth me when the scouts set in flight the folk with
their goods;
And it pleaseth me when I see coming together after them an host of
armed men.”
—Bertrans De Born (fl. 12th century)

“The sleeping and the dead
Are but as pictures; ‘tis the eye of childhood
That fears a painted devil.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
