Famous quotes containing the words lily and/or young:
“There has fallen a splendid tear
From the passion-flower at the gate.
She is coming, my dove, my dear;
She is coming, my life, my fate;
The red rose cries, ‘She is near, she is near;’
And the white rose weeps, ‘She is late;’
The larkspur listens, ‘I hear, I hear;’
And the lily whispers, ‘I wait.’”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
“Though Love has finished,
the young wife
doesn’t know when to quit
and thinks,
“There must be something else,”
her heart
wanting more.”
—Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
