Famous quotes containing the words green and/or springs:
“he went down
As when a lordly cedar, green with boughs,
Goes down with a great shout upon the hills,
And leaves a lonesome place against the sky.”

“Our hearts seemed safe in our breasts and sang to the
Light
The marrow in the bone
We dreamed was safe . . . the blood in the veins, the
sap in the tree
Were springs of Deity.”
—Dame Edith Sitwell (18871964)
