Quotes
- “I come from the elfin king’s demesne With chrysolite, hyacinth, tourmaline;I have emeralds here of living green; I have rubies, each like a cup of wine;And diamonds, diamonds that never have been Outshone by eyes the most divine!”
- “About thy neck a carcanet is bound,Made of the ruby, pearl and diämond:A golden ring that shines upon thy thumb:About thy wrist, the rich dardanium.Between thy breasts (than down of swans more white)There plays the sapphire with the chrysolite.No part besides must of thyself be known,But by the topaz, opal, chalcedon.”
- “When your spirit no longer shines,you crave gems.”
- “An emerald is as green as grass; A ruby red as blood;A sapphire shines as blue as heaven; A lies in the mud.A diamond is a brilliant stone, To catch the world’s desire;An holds a fiery spark; But a flint holds fire.”
- “Inestimable stones, unvalued jewels,All scattered in the bottom of the sea.Some lay in dead men’s skulls, and in the holesWhere eyes did once inhabit there were crept—As ’twere in scorn of eyes—reflecting gems,That wooed the slimy bottom of the deep,And mocked the dead bones that lay scattered by.”
- “My daughter! O my ducats! O my daughter!Fled with a Christian! O my Christian ducats!Justice! the law! my ducats and my daughter!A sealèd bag, two sealèd bags of ducats,Of double ducats, stol’n from me by my daughter!And jewels, two stones, two rich and precious stones,Stol’n by my daughter! Justice! find the girl,She hath the stones upon her and the ducats.”
