Famous quotes containing the words disperse and/or red:

    Either disperse these mists, which blot and fill
    My perspective, still, as they pass:
    Or else remove me hence unto that hill
    Where I shall need no glass.

    These red and golden juices,
    And pay my vows to Abstinence,
    That pallidest of Muses?
