Feeding Bivalves

Famous quotes containing the words feeding and/or bivalves:

“So motionless, she seemed stone dead—just seemed:
She was too old for death, too old for life,
For as if jealous of all living forms
She had lain there before bivalves began
To catacomb their shells on western mountains.”
