Town Burns

Famous quotes containing the words town and/or burns:

    O little town of Bethlehem,
    How still we see thee lie!
    Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
    The silent stars go by;
    Yet in thy dark streets shineth
    The Everlasting Light;
    The hopes and fears of all the years
    Are met in thee tonight.
    Phillips Brooks (1835–1893)

    O My Luve’s like a red, red rose,
    That’s newly sprung in June;
    O My Luve’s like the melodie
    That’s sweetly played in tune.
    —Robert Burns (1759–1796)
