The Dove, On silver pinions, winged her peaceful way. (Quote by - James Montgomery)

I heard a Stock-dove sing or say His homely tale, this very day; His voice was buried among trees, Yet to be come at by the breeze: He did not cease; but cooed--and cooed: And somewhat pensively he wooed: He sang of love, with quiet blending, Slow to begin, and never ending; Of serious faith, and inward glee; That was the song,--the song for me! (Quote by - William Wordsworth)

As the hawk is wont to pursue the trembling doves. (Quote by - Ovid)

We roar all like bears, and mourn sore like doves: we look for judgment, but there is none: for salvation, but it is far off from us. (Quote by - Bible)

Not half so swift the trembling doves can fly, When the fierce eagle cleaves the liquid sky; Not half so swiftly the fierce eagle moves, When thro' the clouds he drives the trembling doves. (Quote by - Alexander Pope)

Anon, as patient as the female dove When that her golden couplets are disclosed, His silence will sit drooping. (Quote by - William Shakespeare)

So shows a snowy dove trooping with crows As yonder lady o'er her fellows shows. (Quote by - William Shakespeare)

And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest. (Quote by - Bible)

Listen, sweet Dove, unto my song, And spread thy golden wings in me; Hatching my tender heart so long, Till it get wing, and flie away with Thee. (Quote by - George Herbert)

The thrustelcok made eek hir lay, The wode dove upon the spray She sang ful loude and cleere. (Quote by - Geoffrey Chaucer)

As when the dove returning bore the mark Of earth restored to the long labouring ark; The relics of mankind, secure at rest, Open every window to receive the guest, And the fair bearer of the message bless'd. (Quote by - John Dryden)

And there my little doves did sit With feathers softly brown And glittering eyes that showed their right To general Nature's deep delight. (Quote by - Elizabeth Barrett Browning)

And oft I heard the tender dove In firry woodlands making moan. (Quote by - Lord Alfred Tennyson)
