Famous quotes containing the words cypress and/or view:
“When I am dead, my dearest, Sing no sad songs for me;
Plant thou no roses at my head, Nor shady cypress tree:
Be the green grass above me With showers and dewdrops wet;
And if thou wilt, remember, And if thou wilt, forget.”
—Christina Georgina Rossetti (18301894)

In view and opposit two citties stood,
Seaborders, disjoind by Neptunes might:
The one Abydos, the other Sestos hight.”
