Speckled Chalcedony Beads

Famous quotes containing the words speckled and/or beads:

    “A speckled cat and a tame hare
    Eat at my hearthstone
    And sleep there;
    And both look up to me alone
    For learning and defence
    As I look up to Providence.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Masts in the offing wagged their tops;
    The swinging waves pealed on the shore;
    The saffron beach, all diamond drops
    And beads of surge, prolonged the roar.”
    —John Davidson (1857–1909)
