Earl Winfield Spencer

Famous quotes containing the words earl and/or spencer:

    God bless our good and gracious King,
    Whose promise none relies on;
    Who never said a foolish thing,
    Nor ever did a wise one.

    Whether in the bringing of the flowers or the food
    She offers plenty, and is part of plenty,
    And whether I see her stooping, or leaning with the flowers,
    What she does is ages old, and she is not simply,
    No, but lovely in that way.
    —Bernard Spencer (1909–1963)
