Famous quotes containing the words white and/or roses:
“There’s many a white hand holds an urn
With lovers’ hearts to dust consumed.”

On Roses thus its self to fill:
And its pure virgin Limbs to fold
In whitest sheets of Lillies cold.
Had it liv’d long it would have been
Lillies without, Roses within.”
