Bishop Pratt

Famous quotes containing the words bishop and/or pratt:

    His breast was deep and white,
    cold and caressable;
    his eyes were red glass,
    much to be desired.
    —Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)

    So motionless, she seemed stone dead—just seemed:
    She was too old for death, too old for life,
    For as if jealous of all living forms
    She had lain there before bivalves began
    To catacomb their shells on western mountains.
    —Edwin John Pratt (1882–1964)
