bound quotes

   He nursed the feelings these dull scenes produce, And loved to stop beside the opening sluice; Where the small stream, confined in narrow bound, Ran with a dull, unvaried, sad'ning sound; Where all presented to the eye or ear, Oppressed the soul! with misery, grief, and fear.

- George Crabbe
  The Borough, letter 22,'Peter Grimes', l.194^9.

In that sharp light the fields did lie Naked and stone-like; each tree stood Like a tranced woman, bound and stark, Far off the wood With darkness ridged the riven dark. 336

-John Freeman
  'Stone Trees'.

And bound for the same bourn as I, On every road I wandered by, Trod beside me, close and dear, The beautiful and death-struck year.

- A(lfred) E(dward) Housman
  A Shropshire Lad, no.41.

Faster than a speeding bullet! More powerful than a locomotive! Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound!
