China Red

Famous quotes containing the words china and/or red:

    The roof of England fell
    Great Paris tolled her bell
    And China staunched her milk and wept for bread

    We have lingered in the chambers of the sea
    By sea-girls wreathed with seaweed red and brown
    Till human voices wake us, and we drown.
