Sun Wore White

Famous quotes containing the words sun, wore and/or white:

    With the noise of the mourning of the Swattish nation!
    Fallen is at length
    Its tower of strength;
    Its sun is dimmed ere it had nooned;
    Dead lies the great Ahkoond,
    The great Ahkoond of Swat
    Is not!
    George Thomas Lanigan (1845–1886)

    But Father John went up,
    And Father John went down;
    And he wore small holes in his shoes,
    And he wore large holes in his gown.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    ‘Tis said as Cupid danced among,
    The God he down the nectar flung,
    Which on the white rose being shed,
    Made it forever after red.
    Arthur Wimperis (1874–1953)
