Scarlet Sentinel

Famous quotes containing the words scarlet and/or sentinel:

    Along the avenue of cypresses,
    All in their scarlet cloaks and surplices
    Of linen, go the chanting choristers,
    The priests in gold and black, the villagers. . . .

    And the sentinel stars set their watch in the sky;
    Thomas Campbell (1774–1844)
