Orlando Gibbons Quote

The silver swan, who, living had no note,
When death approached unlocked her silent throat.

The silver swan, who, living had no note, When death approached unlocked her silent throat.

The silver swan, who, living had no note, When death approached unlocked her silent throat.

The silver swan, who, living had no note, When death approached unlocked her silent throat.

The silver swan, who, living had no note, When death approached unlocked her silent throat.
