Fairies, black, grey, green, and white, You moonshine revellers, and shades of night, You orphan heirs of fixed destiny, Attend your office and your quality.

More quotes by William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

For my part, I may speak it to my shame, I have a truant been to chivalry And so I hear he doth account me too.
