Drayton Park

Famous quotes containing the words drayton and/or park:

    “Show me no more those snowy breasts
    With azure riverets branched
    Where, whilst mine eye with plenty feasts
    Yet is my thirst not staunched;
    O Tantalus, thy pains ne’er tell,
    By me thou are prevented;
    ‘Tis nothing to be plagued in Hell,
    But thus in Heaven tormented.”
    —Michael Drayton (1563–1631)

    “and the words never said,
    And the ominous, ominous dancing ahead.
    We sat in the car park till twenty to one
    And now I’m engaged to Miss Joan Hunter Dunn.”
    —Sir John Betjeman (1906–1984)
