boughs
Short boughs, long vintage. [ English Proverb, collected by George Herbert ]
It is the hour when from the boughs
The nightingale's high note is heard;
It is the hour when lovers' vows
Seem sweet in every whispered word. [ Byron ]
The boughs that bears most hang lowest. [ Proverb ]
It lifts the boughs, whose shadows deep,
Are life's oblivion, the soul's sleep,
And kisses the closed eyes
Of him who slumbering lies. [ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Endymion ]
An oak whose boughs were mossed with age, and high top bald with dry antiquity. [ William Shakespeare ]
The axe of intemperance has lopped off his green boughs and left him a withered trunk. [ Swift ]
Trees the most lovingly shelter and shade us when, like the willow, the higher soar their summits the lowlier droop their boughs. [ Edward Bulwer-Lytton ]
Then was I as a tree whose boughs did bend with fruit; but in one night, a storm or robbery, call it what you will, shook down my mellow hangings, nay, my leaves, and left me bare to weather. [ Shakespeare ]
The truths of nature are one eternal change, one infinite variety. There is no bush on the face of the globe exactly like another bush; there are no two trees in the forest whose boughs bend into the same network, nor two leaves on the same tree which could not be told one from the other, nor two waves in the sea exactly alike. [ Ruskin ]
