Sun Cities

Famous quotes containing the words sun and/or cities:

    The sun such an anointment
    Upon the forehead, on the hands and feet,
    That all air is appointed
    Our candid clothing, our elapsing state.

    London, thou art of townes A per se.
    Soveraign of cities, semeliest in sight,
    Of high renoun, riches, and royaltie;
    Of lordis, barons, and many goodly knyght;
    Of most delectable lusty ladies bright;
    Of famous prelatis in habitis clericall;
    Of merchauntis full of substaunce and myght:
    London, thou art the flour of Cities all
    William Dunbar (c. 1465–c. 1530)
