What are ye orbs? The words of God? the Scriptures of the skies? -- Philip James Bailey

There's not the smallest orb which thou behold'st But in his motion like an angel sings. -- William Shakespeare
The eye that gazes upon the sun sees not the orb it looks upon, confounded by the excess of its brightness. -- Pietro Metastasio
Think, in mounting higher, the angels would press on us, and aspire to drop some golden orb of perfect song into our deep, dear silence. -- Elizabeth Barrett Browning
O, swear not by the moon, the fickle moon, the inconstant moon, that monthly changes in her circle orb, Lest that thy love prove likewise variable -- William Shakespeare
A tear that trembles for a little while Upon the trembling eyelid, till the world Wavers within its circle like a dream, Holds more of meaning in its narrow orb Than all the distant landscape that it blurs. -- Henry Van Dyke
Such is the imperfect nature of man! such spots are there on the disc of the clearest planet; and eyes like Miss Scatcherd's can only see those minute defects, and are blind to the full brightness of the orb. -- Charlotte Bronte
