Our passions are most like to floods and streams;
The shallow murmur, but the deep are dumb.


'Sir Walter Ralegh to the Queen' (1655)


Our passions are most like to floods and streams; The shallow murmur, but the deep are dumb.

Our passions are most like to floods and streams; The shallow murmur, but the deep are dumb.

Our passions are most like to floods and streams; The shallow murmur, but the deep are dumb.

Our passions are most like to floods and streams; The shallow murmur, but the deep are dumb.
