“Let us cross over the river, and rest in the shade of the trees.”
“Let us cross the river to the other side and rest beneath the shade of the trees. [Stonwall Jackson just before passing into eternity in 1863.]”
“A cross is a poor shade tree in earthquake weather.”
“Let us draw the curtain of charity over the rest of this scene”
“It does not do to let the senses fall asleep, whether in the shade of the sacred tree or in the shadow of an army.”
“False friends are like our shadow, keeping close to us while we walk in the sunshine, but leaving us the instant we cross into the shade.”
