White Flower Clusters

Famous quotes containing the words white, flower and/or clusters:

    “Less smooth than her Skin and less white than her breast
    Was this pollisht stone beneath which she lyes prest
    Stop, Reader, and Sigh while thou thinkst on the rest

    With a just trim of Virtue her Soul was endu’d
    Not affectedly Pious nor secretly lewd,
    She cut even between the Cocquet and the Prude.”
    —Matthew Prior (1664–1721)

    “I say he’s bonny,
    He’s the flower of them all,
    My handsome, winsome Johnny.”
    —Unknown. I Know Where I’m Going (l. 14–16)

    “What wondrous life in this I lead!
    Ripe apples drop about my head;
    The luscious clusters of the vine
    Upon my mouth do crush their wine;
    The nectarine and curious peach
    Into my hands themselves do reach;
    Stumbling on melons, as I pass,
    Ensnared with flowers, I fall on grass.”
    —Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)
