Famous quotes containing the words silver and/or maple:
“They unhook their heavy swords
From golden and silver boughs;
But all that are killed in battle
Awaken to life again.”

“Unloved, that beech will gather brown,
This maple burn itself away;
Unloved, the sun-flower, shining fair,
Ray round with flames her disk of seed,
And many a rose-carnation feed
With summer spice the humming air;”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
