“Your eyes are lode-stars! and your tongue’s sweet air”

Act I. Scene I. A Midsummer-Night’s Dream

“Your eyes are lode-stars and your tongue's sweet air,”

Queen Victoria Her Girlhood And Womanhood

“Well, I had read in the old poets 'descriptions of sirens' wondrous language, wondrous words telling of beauty almost divine in its radiance -- of golden hair that had caught the sunshine and held it captive -- of eyes like lode-stars, in whose depths men lost themselves -- of lovely scarlet lips that could smile and threaten.”

Coralie Everyday Life Library No. 2

“The path was now wider and less difficult of access, leading over a pretty knoll, glittering like lode-stars in the dew, beyond which arose the huge and cumbrous pile then distinguished as the castle of Hornby.”
