Campion

Famous quotes containing the word campion:

    Jack and Joan they think no ill,
    But loving live, and merry still;
    Do their week-days’ work, and pray
    Devoutly on the holy day;
    Skip and trip it on the green,
    And help to choose the Summer Queen;
    —Thomas Campion (1567–1620)

    Yet them nor peer nor prince can buy,
    Till ‘Cherry-ripe’ themselves do cry.
    —Thomas Campion (1567–1620)

    “Forsooth, let go!”
    But when we come where comfort is,
    She never will say no.
    —Thomas Campion (1567–1620)
