Georgina

Famous quotes containing the word georgina:

    I smiled at the speech you spoke,
    At your judgement that I heard:
    But I have not often smiled
    Since then, nor questioned since,
    Nor cared for corn-flowers wild,
    Nor sung with the singing bird.
    —Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)

    Hurt no living thing:
    Ladybird, nor butterfly,
    Nor moth with dusty wing,
    —Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)

    For there is no friend like a sister
    In calm or stormy weather;
    To cheer one on the tedious way,
    To fetch one if one goes astray,
    To lift one if one totters down,
    To strengthen whilst one stands.
    —Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)
