White Mantle

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or mantle:

    To muse and brood and live again in memory,
    With those old faces of our infancy
    Heaped over with a mound of grass,
    Two handfuls of white dust, shut in an urn of brass!
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    At last he rose, and twitch’d his mantle blue,
    Tomorrow to fresh woods and pastures new.
    John Milton (1608–1674)
