NUMBER:1370
AUTHOR:William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
QUOTATION:The heaven’s breath
Smells wooingly here: no jutty, frieze,
Buttress, nor coign of vantage, but this bird
Hath made his pendent bed and procreant cradle:
Where they most breed and haunt, I have observed,
The air is delicate.
ATTRIBUTION:Macbeth. Act i. Sc. 6.  [text]
BIOGRAPHY:Columbia Encyclopedia.
WORKS:William Shakespeare Collection.
