Famous quotes containing the words green, toll and/or canals:
“He hangs in shades the orange bright,
Like golden lamps in a green night,
And does in the pomegranates close
Jewels more rich than Ormus shows;
He makes the figs our mouths to meet,
And throws the melons at our feet;
But apples plants of such a price
No tree could ever bear them twice.”
—Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)

—Ron Taffel (20th century)
“The Nymph exulting fills with shouts the sky;
The walls, the woods, and long canals reply.”
