Chase

Famous quotes containing the word chase:

    God prosper long our noble king,
    Our liffes and saftyes all!
    A woefull hunting once there did
    In Chevy Chase befall.
    —Unknown. Chevy Chase (l. 1–4)

    At last these two stout erles did meet,
    Like captaines of great might;
    —Unknown. Chevy Chase (l. 121–122)

    Did ye not hear it?—No; ‘twas but the wind,
    Or the car rattling o’er the stony street;
    On with the dance! let joy be unconfined;
    No sleep till morn, when Youth and Pleasure meet
    To chase the glowing Hours with flying feet.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
