Famous quotes containing the words yellow and/or banners:
“Visions of half the world burned black
And the sun shrunken yellow in smoke.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“The trumpets sound, the banners fly,
The glittering spears are ranked ready;
The shouts o’ war are heard afar,
The battle closes thick and bloody;
But it’s no the roar o’ sea or shore
Wad mak me langer wish to tarry;
Nor shout o’ war that’s heard afar,
Its leaving thee, my bonnie Mary.”
—Robert Burns (1759–1796)
