If I had a palace made of
pearls, inlaid with jewels, scented with musk, saffron and
sandalwood, a sheer delight to behold - seeing this, I
might go astray and forget You, and Your Name would
not enter into my mind.
Sri Guru Granth Sahib
The countless gold of a merry
heart,
The rubies and pearls of a loving eye,
The indolent never can bring to the mart,
Nor the secret hoard up in his treasury.
william blake
She is mine own,
And I as rich in having such a jewel
As twenty seas, if all their sand were pearl,
The water nectar, and the rocks pure gold.
william shakespeare
I must go seek some dew-drops
here,
And hang a pearl in every cowslip's ear.
