Red White

Famous quotes containing the words red and/or white:

and many, and many,
burned at the stake,
peeling their skin off,
boiling their good red blood,
their hearts like eggs....”

I it as mine own fingers nurst.
And as it grew, so every day
It wax’d more white and sweet than they.
It had so sweet a Breath!”
