Eastern Han Dynasty

Famous quotes containing the words eastern and/or han:

    But we are spirits of another sort.
    I with the morning’s love have oft made sport,
    And like a forester the groves may tread
    Even till the eastern gate, all fiery-red,
    Opening on Neptune with fair blessèd beams,
    Turns unto yellow gold his salt green streams.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    We all desiren, if it mighte be,
    To han husbandes hardy, wise, and free,
    And secret, and no niggard, ne no fool,
    Ne him that is aghast of every tool,
    Ne none avaunter, by that God above!
    Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)
