"Close-knit" Quotes from Famous Books



... he, and one purpose nerves them all. They form a wedge, and forward with a cheer The close-knit column charges at the wall. Here scaling ladders in a trice they rear, And firebrands suddenly and flames appear. These seek the gates, and lay the foremost dead; Those flash the sword, or shake the shining spear. Darts cloud the skies. ...
— The Aeneid of Virgil - Translated into English Verse by E. Fairfax Taylor • Virgil
