Famous quotes containing the words pair and/or sit:
“She scatters
the lotuses of her eyes
up the street,
waiting for you to come,
resting her breasts on the gate
like a pair of lucky pots.”
—Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
“See where my Love sits in the beds of spices,
Beset all round with camphor, myrrh, and roses,
And interlaced with curious devices
Which her apart from all the world incloses!
There doth she tune her lute for her delight,
And with sweet music makes the ground to move,
Whilst I, poor I, do sit in heavy plight,
Wailing alone my unrespected love;”
—Bartholomew Griffin (d. 1602)
