City Water

Famous quotes containing the words city and/or water:

“A city on whom plenty held full hand,
For riches strewed herself even in her streets;
Whose towers bore heads so high they kissed the clouds,
And strangers ne’er beheld but wondered at.”

But give me water heavy on the head
In all the passion of a broken drouth.”
