Single Origin

Famous quotes containing the words single and/or origin:

“You have beheld a smiling Rose
When Virgins hands have drawn
O’r it a Cobweb-Lawne:
And here, you see, this Lilly shows,
Tomb’d in a Christal stone,
More faire in this transparent case,
Than when it grew alone;
And had but single grace.”
—Robert Herrick (1591–1674)
