Green Vest

Famous quotes containing the words green and/or vest:

    He hangs in shades the orange bright,
    Like golden lamps in a green night,
    And does in the pomegranates close
    Jewels more rich than Ormus shows;
    He makes the figs our mouths to meet,
    And throws the melons at our feet;
    But apples plants of such a price
    No tree could ever bear them twice.
    Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)

    And Truth, in sunny vest arrayed,
    By whose the tarsel’s eyes were made;
    William Collins (1721–1759)
