Green Turtle

Famous quotes containing the words green and/or turtle:

“But oh! that deep romantic chasm which slanted
Down the green hill athwart a cedarn cover!
A savage place! as holy and enchanted
As e’er beneath a waning moon was haunted
By woman wailing for her demon-lover!”
—Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

“The second day of Christmas,
My true love sent to me
Two turtle doves,”
