Famous quotes containing the words sun, cities and/or solar:

    Once at thy Feast, I saw thee Pearle-like stand
    ‘Tween Heaven and Earth, where Heavens Bright glory all
    In streams fell on thee, as a floodgate and
    Like Sun Beams through thee on the World to Fall.

    Saints Heaven-lost Happiness restor’d by thee.
