5th Earl Spencer

Famous quotes containing the words earl and/or spencer:

    by and by, the cause of my disease
    Gives me a pang that inwardly doth sting,
    When that I think what grief it is again
    To live and lack the thing should rid my pain.
    Henry Howard, Earl Of Surrey (1517?–1547)

    Whether in the bringing of the flowers or the food
    She offers plenty, and is part of plenty,
    And whether I see her stooping, or leaning with the flowers,
    What she does is ages old, and she is not simply,
    No, but lovely in that way.
    —Bernard Spencer (1909–1963)
