Famous quotes containing the word campion:
“Now you courtly dames and knights,
That study only strange delights,
Though you scorn the home-spun gray
And revel in your rich array;
Though your tongues dissemble deep
And can your heads from danger keep:
Yet for all your pomp and train,
Securer lives the silly swain.”
—Thomas Campion (1567–1620)

But her performance keeps no day;
Breaks time, as dancers,
From their own music when they stray.”

That she in peace may wake and pity me.”
