Famous quotes containing the words incense and/or clocks:

    “Here the sausage and garlic booth
    Sent unholy incense skyward;

    To call it dancing;”

    Of some mean things which here below reside,
    Where birds like watchful clocks the noiseless date
    And intercourse of times divide,”
