Fragrant

Famous quotes containing the word fragrant:

“Moving between the legs of tables and of chairs,
Rising or falling, grasping at kisses and toys,
Advancing boldly, sudden to take alarm,
Retreating to the corner of arm and knee,
Eager to be reassured, taking pleasure
In the fragrant brilliance of the Christmas tree....”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

“Beautiful, wide-spread,
fire upon leaf,
what meadow yields
so fragrant a leaf
as your bright leaf?”
—Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

“Such fragrant flowers do give most odorous smell;
But her sweet odour did them all excel.”
—Edmund Spenser (1552?–1599)
