Baron Butler of Brockwell

Famous quotes containing the words baron and/or butler:

    Erle Douglas on his milk-white steede,
    Most like a baron bold,
    Rode foremost of his company,
    Whose armor shone like gold.
    Unknown. Chevy Chase (l. 65–68)

    What climbs the stair?
    Nothing that common women ponder on
    If you are worth my hope! Neither Content
    Nor satisfied Conscience, but that great family
    Some ancient famous authors misrepresent,
    The Proud Furies each with her torch on high.
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
