Famous quotes containing the words eastern and/or rites:
“Now Morn her rosy steps in th’ eastern clime
Advancing, sowed the earth with orient pearl.”

A moth of peace, and he go to the war,
The rites for which I love him are bereft me,
And I a heavy interim shall support
By his dear absence. Let me go with him.”
