Bryant Fired

Famous quotes containing the words bryant and/or fired:

“Thou waitest late and com’st alone,
When woods are bare and birds are flown,”

“See where she comes, and smell how all the street,
Breathes vineyards and pomegranates: oh, how sweet!
As a fired altar is each stone,
Perspiring pounded cinnamon.
The phoenix-nest,
Built up of odours, burneth in her breast.
Who therein would not consume
His soul to ash-heaps in that rich perfume,”
—Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
