Famous quotes containing the words burning and/or incense:
“As in hoary winter’s night stood shivering in the snow,
Surprised I was with sudden heat which made my heart to glow;
And lifting up a fearful eye to view what fire was near,
A pretty Babe all burning bright did in the air appear;”
—Robert Southwell (1561?–1595)
“You might sooner get lightning out of incense smoke than true action or passion out of your modern English religion.”
