Famous quotes containing the words silk and/or mass:
“Tis not your inky brows, your black silk hair,
Your bugle eyeballs, nor your cheek of cream
That can entame my spirits to your worship.”

“When over Catholics the ocean rolls,
They must wait several weeks before a mass
Takes off one peck of purgatorial coals,
Because, till people know whats come to pass,
They wont lay out their money on the dead
It costs three francs for every mass thats said.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (17881824)
