lair quotes

  • Deep in the shady sadness of a vale Far sunken from the healthy breath of morn, Far from the fiery noon and eve's one star, Sat gray-haired Saturn, quiet as a stone, Still as the silence round about his lair.

    -John Keats
      Lamia, Isabella, The Eve of St.  Agnes and Other Poems, 'Hyperion', bk.1, l.1^5.
