Chief Constable Sir

Famous quotes containing the words chief, constable and/or sir:

    But all its chief delight was still
    On Roses thus its self to fill:
    And its pure virgin Limbs to fold
    In whitest sheets of Lillies cold.
    Had it liv’d long it would have been
    Lillies without, Roses within.
    Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)

    I do love thee as each flower
    Loves the sun’s life-giving power,
    For, dead, thy breath to life might move me.
    —Henry Constable (1562–1613)

    Over Sir John’s hill,
    The hawk on fire hangs still;
    In a hoisted cloud, at drop of dusk, he pulls to his claws
    And gallows, up the rays of his eyes the small birds of the bay....
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
