Baron Cowley

Famous quotes containing the words baron and/or cowley:

    Justice should not only be done, but should manifestly and undoubtedly be seen to be done.
    Gordon, 1st Baron Of Bury Hewart (1870–1943)

    Foolish prater, What dost thou
    So early at my window do?
    Cruel bird, thou’st ta’en away
    A dream out of my arms to-day;
    A dream that ne’er must equall’d be
    By all that waking eyes may see.
    Thou this damage to repair
    Nothing half so sweet and fair,
    Nothing half so good, canst bring,
    Tho’ men say thou bring’st the Spring.
    —Abraham Cowley (1618–1667)
