Thomas Gray Quote

Hands, that the rod of empire might have swayed,
Or waked to ecstasy the living lyre.


St. 12 - Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard (1750)


Hands, that the rod of empire might have swayed, Or waked to ecstasy the living lyre.

Hands, that the rod of empire might have swayed, Or waked to ecstasy the living lyre.

Hands, that the rod of empire might have swayed, Or waked to ecstasy the living lyre.

Hands, that the rod of empire might have swayed, Or waked to ecstasy the living lyre.
