Tomb Robberies

Famous quotes containing the words tomb and/or robberies:

    Laid out for death, let thy last kindness be
    With leaves and moss-work for to cover me:
    And while the wood-nymphs my cold corpse inter,
    Sing thou my dirge, sweet-warbling chorister!
    For epitaph, in foliage, next write this:
    Here, here the tomb of Robin Herrick is.
    Robert Herrick (1591–1674)

    True, we’re not great thieves, like the nobles. Our robberies are petty compared to the wholesale plunder of the nation.
