Famous quotes containing the words wild and/or lilies:
“The march of conquest through wild provinces, may be the march of Mind; but not the march of Love.”

“Listen where thou art sitting
Under the glassy, cool, translucent wave,
In twisted braids of lilies knitting
The loose train of thy amber-dropping hair;
Listen for dear honour’s sake,
Goddess of the silver lake,
Listen and save.”
