Dainty June

Famous quotes containing the words dainty and/or june:

    Then stretch our bones in a still gloomy valley;
    Nothing’s so dainty sweet as lovely melancholy.
    John Fletcher (1579–1625)

    I sing of brooks, of blossoms, birds and bowers,
    Of April, May, of June and July-flowers;
    I sing of May-poles, hock-carts, wassails, wakes,
    Of bridegrooms, brides and of their bridal cakes;
    I write of youth, of love, and have access
    By these to sing of cleanly wantonness;
    Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
