Famous quotes containing the word surrey:

    “Help to bewail the woeful case
    And eke the heavy plight
    Of me, that wonted to rejoice
    The fortunes of my pleasant choice.
    Good ladies, help to fill my mourning voice.”
    —Henry Howard, Earl Of Surrey (1517?–1547)

    “Then think I thus: sith such repair,
    So long time war of valiant men,
    Was all to win a lady fair,
    Shall I not learn to suffer then,
    And think my life well spent to be,
    Serving a worthier wight than she?”
    —Henry Howard, Earl Of Surrey (1517?–1547)

    “But I was trying to tell you about a strange thing
    That happened to me, but this is no way to tell about it,
    By making it truly happen. It drifts away in fragments.
    And one is left sitting in the yard
    To try to write poetry
    Using what Wyatt and Surrey left around....”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)
