Rossetti

Famous quotes containing the word rossetti:

    Spring’s an expansive time: yet I don’t trust
    March with its peck of dust,
    Nor April with its rainbow-crowned brief showers,
    Nor even May, whose flowers
    One frost may wither thro’ the sunless hours.
    —Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)

    Spin and die,
    To live again as butterfly.
    —Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)

    The customary cry,
    ‘Come buy, come buy,’
    With its iterated jingle
    Of sugar-bated words:
    —Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)
