Wilt

Famous quotes containing the word wilt:

    And wilt thou leave me thus?
    That hath loved thee so long
    In wealth and woe among:
    And is thy heart so strong
    As for to leave me thus?
    Say nay! say nay!
    Sir Thomas Wyatt (1503?–1542)

    But wilt thou cure thine heart
    Of love and all its smart,
    Then die, dear, die;
    Thomas Lovell Beddoes (1803–1849)

    Oh! thou clear spirit of clear fire, whom on these seas I as Persian once did worship, till in the sacramental act so burned by thee, that to this hour I bear the scar; I now know thee, thou clear spirit, and I now know that thy right worship is defiance. To neither love nor reverence wilt thou be kind; and e’en for hate thou canst but kill; and all are killed. No fearless fool now fronts thee.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
