Incense Burning

Famous quotes containing the words incense and/or burning:

    Here the sausage and garlic booth
    Sent unholy incense skyward;
    There a quivering female-thing
    Gestured assignations, and lied
    To call it dancing;
    Anne Spencer (1882–1975)

    Death is the mother of beauty, mystical,
    Within whose burning bosom we devise
    Our earthly mothers waiting, sleeplessly.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
