Famous quotes containing the word patmore:

    He had put, within his reach,
    A box of counters and a red-veined stone,
    A piece of glass abraded by the beach,
    And six or seven shells,
    A bottle with bluebells,
    And two French copper coins, ranged there with careful art,
    —Coventry Kersey Dighton Patmore (1823–1896)
