Sentences with OSSUARIES (5)
For, besides these lacrymatories, notable lamps, with vessels of oils, and aromatical liquors, attended noble ossuaries; and some yet retaining a vinosity and spirit in them, which, if any have tasted, they have far exceeded the palates of antiquity.

Thou dost this body, this enhavocked realm, Subject to ancient and ancestral shadows; Descended passions sway it; it is distraught With ghostly usurpation, dinned and fretted With the still-tyrannous dead; a haunted tenement, Peopled from barrows and outworn ossuaries.
Yea, ere Saturnian earth her child consumes, And I lie down with outworn ossuaries, Ere death’s grim tongue anticipates the tomb’s _Siste viator_, in this storied urn My living heart is laid to throb and burn, Till end be ended, and till ceasing cease.
