Famous quotes containing the words green and/or dragon:

    Annihilating all that’s made
    To a green thought in a green shade.
    Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)

    Sir Eglamour, that worthy knight,
    He took his sword and went to fight;
    And as he rode both hill and dale,
    Armed upon his shirt of mail,
    A dragon came out of his den,
    Had slain, God knows how many men!
    Samuel Rowlands (1570?–1630?)
