His first swift word, talaria-shod,— The Complete Poetical Works of James Russell Lowell
Addita cur nuper pedibus talaria?— Notes and Queries, Number 21, March 23, 1850
Many an imperfect hemisphere of thought, action, desire, that could not heretofore unite with its corresponding hemisphere, because separated by ten or fourteen days of suspense, now moves electrically to its integration, hurries to its complement, realizes its orbicular perfection, spherical completion, through that simple series of improvements which to man have given the wings and _talaria_ of Gods, for the heralds have dimly suggested a future rivalship with the velocities of light, and even now have inaugurated a race between the child of mortality and the North Wind.— The Posthumous Works of Thomas De Quincey, Vol. 1
With his horizon all his own, yet he a poor man, born to be poor, with his inherited Irish poverty or poor life, his Adam's grandmother and boggy ways, not to rise in this world, he nor his posterity, till their wading webbed bog-trotting feet get talaria to their heels.— Walden
Clarke renders ‘ut tersis niteant talaria plantis,’ ‘that his wings shine upon his spruce feet.’] [Footnote 87: _God who inhabits Lemnos.— The Metamorphoses of Ovid Vol. I, Books I-VII
