Rosy

Famous quotes containing the word rosy:

    O pale, pale now, those rosy lips,
    I aft hae kissed sae fondly;
    And closed for ay, the sparkling glance
    That dwalt on me sae kindly;
    And moldering now in silent dust
    That heart that lo’ed me dearly!
    Robert Burns (1759–1796)

    A land where all things always seemed the same!
    And round about the keel with faces pale,
    Dark faces pale against that rosy flame,
    The mild-eyed melancholy Lotos-eaters came.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    That weird shall never daunten me.”
    Syne he has kissed her rosy lips,
    All underneath the Eildon Tree.
    Unknown. Thomas the Rhymer (l. 22–24)
