Crystal Bridges

Famous quotes containing the words crystal and/or bridges:

    While that the sun with his beams hot
    Scorched the fruits in vale and mountain,
    Philon the shepherd, late forgot,
    Sitting beside a crystal fountain,
    Unknown. The Unfaithful Shepherdess (l. 1–4)

    And Reason kens he herits in
    A haunted house. Tenants unknown
    Assert their squalid lease of sin
    With earlier title than his own.
    —Robert Bridges (1844–1930)
