When Music, heavenly maid, was young,

While yet in early Greece she sung.

William Collins (1720-1756): The Passions. Line 1.

The Pilgrim of Eternity, whose fame

Over his living head like heaven is bent,

An early but enduring monument,

Came, veiling all the lightnings of his song

In sorrow.

Such graves as his are pilgrim shrines,

Shrines to no code or creed confined,—

The Delphian vales, the Palestines,

The Meccas of the mind.

Alfred Bunn (1790-1860): Burns.

Till morning fair

Came forth with pilgrim steps in amice gray.

John Milton (1608-1674): Paradise Regained. Book iv. Line 426.

Our Pilgrim stock wuz pithed with hardihood.
