Famous quotes containing the words called and/or sir:
“Out of the darkness where Philomela sat,
Her fairy numbers issued. What then ailed me?
My ears are called capacious but they failed me,
Her classics registered a little flat!
I rose, and venomously spat.”

“‘Tirra Tirra,’ by the river
Sang Sir Lancelot.”
